[Profile of Prof. Muhammad Yunus]
Born on 28th June 1940 in the People's Republic of Bangladesh.
He founded Grameen Bank in 1983, which provides microcredit loans to the landless poor, especially women in rural Bangladesh to support their livelihood.
Microcredit, a method of assisting the poor in becoming self-sufficient, has been implemented throughout the country and has significantly contributed to the country's poverty alleviation.
In 2006, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his achievements.
He is a proponent of "Social Business", which solves social problems through business and continues developing businesses in various fields worldwide.

Index Group's mission is to contribute to solving social issues and making international contributions through our business.
Because the "Social Business" advocated by Prof. Yunus aligns with our mission, Index Group assists in sponsoring this symposium. 

In his keynote speech, Prof. Yunus will speak based on his latest book, "A World of Three Zeros: The New Economics of Zero Poverty, Zero Unemployment, and Zero Net Carbon Emissions".

The symposium will be divided into two parts: the first will feature a speech by Prof. Yunus, and the second will feature an expert panel discussion.
The second half's panelists will be announced as soon as they are confirmed.
