Program Session: #278

Sponsors: SIM, IM, ENT, BPS, ONE, PNP

Time: Saturday, Aug 10 2013: 10:15AM - 12:15PM

Location: WDW Coronado Springs Resort, Rooms Q,R,S

Background: The objective of this session is to build a stronger community of scholars interested in advancing the base of the pyramid (BoP) domain and collectively creating a roadmap for doing so. This session will draw attention to the prospects and challenges that scholars have in making major contributions at the intersection of business development and poverty alleviation. A key outcome will be co-creating the roadmap that we need to build a community of scholars that works, both individually and collectively, to achieve greater impact today and over the longer term.
