The BoP Narrative Competition was hosted by the Centre for Sustainable Global Enterprise at Cornell University. This year the Competition attracted more than 100 submissions from 18 countries illustrating a diverse array of businesses in 37 different countries. The quality of the submissions made the judging challenging, however using a blind review process the judges were able to identify a small group of finallists. Our student Amit Gupta’s submission about sanitation came in third place. Congratulations to Amit! The winning essays will be posted on the BoP Learning Lab website at www.bopnetwork.org shortly.
