The document discusses how business has changed from the 20th to 21st century due to factors like globalization, communication technology advances, and the rise of the internet. It notes that pre-internet era companies had a domestic focus, while modern companies have a global reach and can monitor performance and hold conferences in real-time across locations. It suggests that by 2050, economies will be integrated into a single global market and that businesses now need cross-national strategies and wealth creation approaches rather than wealth extraction to survive the paradigm shift brought on by these changes.
