Discussion: View Thread

Dear Colleagues,

I am a PhD Candidate searching for case studies of base-of-the-pyramid
firms (i.e., case studies of firms that have build their business around
low-income people). I was wondering whether anyone has any suggestions
where I could find such case studies. So far I have collected case studies
from the following sources:

- World Resources Institute
- World Business Council for Sustainable Development
- Caseplace.org
- Stanford Graduate School of Business – Cases:
http://gsbapps.stanford.edu/cases/
- The William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan
- Prahalad (2005): http://www.bus.umich.edu/BottomOfThePyramid/xMAP2003.htm
- Business in Development Network

Any suggestions of additional sources are most welcome!

Sincerely,

Martin Klein

Dear Martin and all,

CSR Europe has put over 600 CSR solutions (short practical cases) into public domain on Nov 29. There are quite many solutions related to BoP. The database might be of interest to those studying other issues.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all,

With best wishes,
Volodja Vorobey

Thanks for all the suggestions for sources where to find
base-of-the-pyramid case studies. For those interested I have compiled a
list of all suggestions made (see attachment). Particular thanks to
Kevin McKague who suggested the bulk of the list.
