Title The Bottom Of The Pyramid: Key Roles For Businesses
 
Creator Habib, Mohsin

Description The poor at the Bottom of the Pyramid (BOP) has traditionally been viewed as an unattractive segment for businesses. The lack of interest has led to various proposals to increase company participation. At the same time there is also a renewed focus on how to reduce or eliminate poverty. Companies are asked to seriously consider both objectives: making a profitable operation and eradicating poverty. For businesses, the poor can be viewed as consumers, suppliers, and employees.  Each of these areas presents different challenges which are discussed. Finally, recommendations are presented to address the issues and to make the companies more effective.
