Abstract: Abstract This volume has been developed to communicate important developments in the lessening of poverty in the world’s developing countries through initiatives by larger businesses and individual entrepreneurs. Expectations are currently ballooning as new possibilities are seen for using new technologies and collaborations to empower the very poor to participate in the global economy. We see surge of imagination around the world in the creation of new and successful approaches to using business strategy to alleviate poverty.
