The World Bank Group on Thursday announced the launch of the next phase of its private sector investment lab, focused on implementing proven solutions at scale.

The new chapter also expands the lab’s membership to include industry leaders with experience generating jobs in developing economies, aligning directly with the bank’s focus on job creation as a core driver of development.

The new members of the lab include Sunil Bharti Mittal, chair, Bharti Enterprises; Bill Anderson, CEO, Bayer AG; Aliko Dangote, president and CEO, Dangote Group; and Mark Hoplamazian, president and CEO, Hyatt Hotels Corporation.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
