With love to my wonderful wife Kacey for her encouragement and inspiration, and to my warmhearted and good-humored family, especially Anne, Chris, Katherine, Theo, Gabe, and Emma!

To my children, Matt and Sorine – I am thrilled that you share my love of global adventure! – and to David and the rest of my family, who support me in so many ways. You help me to cross borders every day.

Trend lines seldom remain constant over time, and unpredictable events occur: natural disasters, civil unrest, war, disease, economic crises. The BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India, China) countries were once touted as the growth economies of the future, but Brazil and Russia have both since experienced economic turmoil and stagnation. Even China's once torrid double-digit growth has slowed to single digits and what its government is calling the “new normal,” although this is still double or triple the growth rates in the United States and Europe. And, as many companies that invested in Russia have discovered, geopolitics can scuttle once-promising trends. Investing in Russia seemed like a fine idea based on its size and market potential when the BRIC acronym was coined, but the country has turned out to be a far riskier place for investors than many predicted.3 Corrupt governments, poor infrastructure, and limited educational opportunities also hold back development in many locations.

Such caveats notwithstanding, the general trajectory from west to east and north to south has been in place for decades. Projected global population growth of at least two billion more people, almost all outside of the developed world, suggests that this trend will continue. One calculation places the global economy's center of gravity in 2050 between India and China, or more than 5,000 miles east of where it was in 1980.4 Carlos Ghosn, renowned CEO of automaker Renault-Nissan, remarks, “Growth is going to come from new markets – we all know China, India, the Middle East, South America – but also from the countries of the future, which are going to be the next wave coming.”5 In particular, projections based on population and/or natural resources often point to countries such as Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, Turkey, Vietnam, Iran, Egypt, Colombia, and the Philippines. Acronym lovers undeterred by the mixed performance of the BRIC nations now refer to the first four of these as the MINT countries.6 Their continued growth will require further investments in infrastructure along with ongoing social and political reform, and some will be more successful at harnessing their potential than others.
