The use of microfinance as a strategy for improving the socio-economic wellbeing of beneficiaries in developing countries has been extensively reported. However, how microfinance institutions have used financial innovation to promote sustainable entrepreneurship, particularly in developing and emerging economies, is not well understood. Financial innovation allows time and resources for creating and adopting new business models to develop products/services and finding a niche market as well as enhance a learning organization, entrepreneurial resilience, and sustainable entrepreneurship. Microfinance, Financial Innovation, and Sustainable Entrepreneurship in Economics analyzes the influence o...
This book presents select peer reviewed proceedings of the International Conference on Design and Engineering of Lighter-Than-Air Systems (DELTAs 2022) which was held at the Department of Aerospace Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay. It highlights current research trends and advancements in the field of lighter-than-air (LTA) systems. The topics covered include design (conventional and unconventional), aerodynamics (CFD), structures, loads and materials, stability and control, operations and ground handling, multidisciplinary design optimization, and novel applications of LTA systems.

This book presents a timely and in-depth exploration of how modern organizations must evolve to meet the challenges of a rapidly changing world. Anchored in four foundational pillars—innovation, resilience, agility, and flexibility—this book offers a scholarly yet practical framework that speaks to leaders, practitioners, academics, and scholars across disciplines and geographies. The opening sections establish the urgency for organizations to fundamentally rethink their operations in the face of global disruptions, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, climate change, digital transformation, and labor market shifts. Innovation is presented not as a luxury or trend, but as a necessity. This boo...
Following Peter Oborne's award-winning global success with Wounded Tiger: A History of Cricket in Pakistan comes a new volume, written with Richard Heller, to celebrate the extraordinary story of Pakistan cricket. In White on Green, we discover a rich tapestry of stories about cricket in all its forms that will fascinate all who want to understand more about that country. We hear from the players of Dera Ismail Khan, who appeared when their side lost by a world-record margin of an innings and 851 runs; and from the Khan sisters, who helped develop the women's game in Pakistan, despite the threats from those who believed their actions to be immoral. But we also hear from the greats of Pakistan cricket, past and present, who provide a revealing picture of the special challenges they have faced, both at home and abroad. Written with great warmth, affection and insight, White on Green is an evocative portrait of a country that is too often condemned and too little understood by outsiders. It shows how the spirit of cricket can help overcome the most difficult environments and bring people together.
