Businesses benefit
from including the
poor:

finding new
customers, creating
long-term customer
loyalty, developing
transferable
innovations
 on the demand side:
improving
production capacity,
getting access to
high-quality inputs,
expanding customer
reach
Participation
of the Poor
The poor benefit
from participating
in markets:

and services
 access to income
opportunities as

and power
Human

The goods &
services provided

Opportunities exist to build bridges between business and the poor
The poor harbour a potential for consumption, production, innovation and
entrepreneurial activity that is largely untapped
2.6 billion people live on less than US$ 2 per day; 1 billion lack access to clean water; 2.6 billion
lack adequate sanitation; 1.6 billion lack access to electricity; 5.4 billion have no access to
internet
Inclusive business models include the poor on the demand side as clients and
customers, and on the supply side as employees, producers and business owners
in the value chain
Sectors: energy, water & sanitation,
agriculture, health, financial services, ICT,
handicraft, education, housing, tourism
Types of organizations: MNCs, large
companies (public/private), MSMEs,
cooperatives, NGOs, social business
Inclusive business models create a win-win scenario between business and the
poor
Benefits for business: generating profits,
creating innovation, developing new markets,
strengthening supply chains
Benefits for the poor: meeting basic needs,
increasing productivity and incomes,
empowering communities

How can Core Business contribute to Development:
Example from the mobile telephony market
Access to
mobile phones
Increased income
for farmers through
instant market
information (e.g.
RML, India; Manobi,
Senegal)
Faster access to
healthcare services
for remote areas
(e.g. Voxiva in Peru,
Pesinet in Mali)
Source of income
and empowerment
for women (e.g.
GrameenPhone
ladies)
Access to financial
services through
mobile banking (e.g.
ALW, India; Celpay,
DRC)
Reduced digital
divide and increased
economic growth
From Unmet Demand to Business Opportunity
 Africa (especially SSA) is the region that offers most promise in the telecom sector
 Africa’s mobile phone market is one of the fastest growing in the world (40% growth in
2006)
 Penetration rates are still very low (less than 15%)
 Mobile phone subscribers in Africa could increase to 250 million in the next 4 years

2008 Report – Main Messages
1
Opportunities exist to build bridges
between business and the poor and
create value for all.
2
Capturing these opportunities is
challenging due to five widespread
market constraints in the rural villages
and urban slums where the poor live.
3
Entrepreneurs have used five core
strategies to overcome these
constraints.
4
Business leaders, but also governments, donors, NGOs, communities
and other stakeholders can take
action to create value for all and make
markets more inclusive.

Case Study #1: SELCO (India)
“We set up SELCO to bust 3 myths: the poor cannot afford technology, the poor cannot maintain
technology and it is not possible to run a commercial venture that fulfills a social objective.” - Dr. Harish
Hande, Founder
Description
Opportunity: most of India’s rural population does not have access to
electricity; 400 million depend on highly polluting and inefficient sources of
energy, thus hindering productivity
Business model: make solar lighting technology accessible to the rural poor
(Karnataka) through credit
Constraints:
• Negative perception about
solar technology
• Different clients’ needs
and payment capacities
Solutions:
• Demonstration effects: maintained solar
street lights to demonstrate viability of the
technology
• Customized products (e.g. head lamps for
midwives and flower pickers) and payback
options
Results
Partners
Suppliers: Tata BP, Shakti
Electronics, Anand Electronics
Investors: IFC, USAID, E+Co,
Lemelson, Good Energies
Foundation
Loans: rural banks, credit
cooperatives, MFIs
Social: provision of solar lighting to >110,000 rural homes and 4,000
institutions (orphanages, clinics, schools), creation of jobs (170) and income
opportunities for the rural poor (entrepreneurs renting SELCO lamps to street
vendors daily), savings in energy costs, improved children’s education and
health.
Classification
Environmental: non-polluting and renewable source of energy
Inclusion: Consumer, Entrepreneur
Economic: 25 service centers, average sale price of INR 20,000, broke even
after 7 years, now worth INR 150 million, won national and international
awards
Implementation: SEWA
Sector: Energy
Type: MSME
