Working to scale a technology designed for the bottom of the pyramid?
Come join for the first of a series of events as we lay the foundation
for what to consider when designing for global impact. You'll hear
from a handful of entrepreneurs working on development technologies as
we explore questions like – how to select the right problem to solve,
design for dissemination, to test your technology in the field,
finance growth, manage operations and scale working models. Space is
limited. RSVP to http://bit.ly/vth7Id
