Economist editor John Micklethwait predicts that solid, structural industries and consumer goods will drive the global economic recovery. But he sees the greatest opportunities happening in India and China where a billion people have been dragged out of poverty and are now "ready to buy."

Big Think 's new series on opportunity features video interviews some of today's most provocative authors, economists, popular psychologists, and business experts, designed to help you survive and thrive during this difficult financial correction. With the understanding that our world will emerge from the current recession with a more robust and advanced infrastructure for operating in a global knowledge economy, it's critical that we hear the best ideas from the leading minds of our time.
