From "Economy of Communion - a new culture" N.31 - May 2010
"Unlike the consumer economy
based on a culture of having,
the Economy of Communion
is the economy of giving.
This could seem difficult,
arduous, heroic.
But it is not, because the human person,
made in the image of God who is love,
finds fulfillment
precisely in loving, in giving.
This need to love lies in the deepest core
of our being, whether we are believers
or not.
And in this affirmation,
supported by our experience,
is where lies the hope of the universal spread
of the economy of communion."

“Let’s not simply limit ourselves to lamenting the premature death of Olivetti and to think that his business model of creating community-factories has died with him, let’s instead go out and search for the many “Olivettis” in the world today, who each day, painstakingly, continue to translate that dream into reality”

Telling about the Spiga Dorata means telling the story of a great desire to spend money on the poorest turned into a wonderful entrepreneurial folly. A project that over time has generated so much and reached so many important numbers, standing up to the challenge of the obstacles and threats of a place as hostile as the peripheral metropolitan areas in Brazil, also succeeding in holding back violence with a welcoming openness to the other and a deep sense of service.
