Abstract: Abstract A particular breed of entrepreneurs understands the systemic nature of the causes of poverty and has designed effective strategies to tackle them. While they may be tackling a particular issue, as we will see in this chapter (rural distribution for Satyan, property rights for André and intellectual property for Ron), they understand the complex, interwoven set of obstacles faced by the poor. The following stories of these three social entrepreneurs will make this argument better than we ever could.
