Since October 2006, when Professor Muhammad Yunus and Grameen Bank jointly received the Nobel Peace Prize, Local and International interest in Professor Yunus's work has grown exponentially. To address this ever-growing need, Professor Yunus founded Yunus Centre in July 2008 to promote and disseminate his work and philosophy, especially the concept and practice of Social Business.
As one-stop resource centre for Social Business related activities both globally and in Bangladesh. Yunus Centre works to incubate Social Business ideas and concepts into practically implementable business solutions. It helps forge lasting relationships among Social Business institutions around the world and promotes the global Social Business movement through communications events, social media and publications.
