Nano-Economy, noun

A term used by entrepreneur Pete Sisco to mean; ‘a personal economy, largely under the control of the individual who owns it, equal to one-billionth of the global economy.’

According to Wikipedia, the current Gross World Product is equal to approximately US$78-trillion/year.

The metric prefix, nano, represents a value of 10^-9 or one-billionth of a unit.
