Vad är Bottom of the Pyramid, (I botten på pyramiden)? Beskrivning

I botten av (den ekonomiska) pyramiden består av 4 miljarder personer som lever på mindre än $2 per dag. I mer än 50 år har, Världsbanken, donerande länder, olika biståndsorganisationer, nationella myndigheter och nyligen, civila samhällsorganisationer har alla gjort efter deras bästa förmåga, men de har varit oförmögna att utrota fattigdomen.

Medveten om detta frustrerande faktum, påbörjade C.K. Prahalad sin bok: "The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid" med ett enkelt dock omvälvande förslag: Om vi slutar att tänka på den fattige som ett offer eller som en börda och startar erkänna dem som spänstiga och kreativa entreprenörer och värdesmedvetna konsumenter, kommer en helt ny värld av möjligheter att öppna sig.

Prahalad föreslår att fyra miljarder fattiga kan vara motorn för nästa runda av global handel och välstånd och kan vara en källa till innovationer. Att tjäna kunderna I botten av pyramiden kräver att stora företag fungerar i samarbete med civila samhällsorganisationer och lokala regeringar. Dessutom kommer marknadsutveckling som är längst ner i pyramiden också, att skapa miljoner av nya entreprenörer på gräsrotsnivån.
 

Prahalad presenterar hans nya vy angående lösningen till problemet av fattigdom som en Co-Creation samverkanslösning mot ekonomisk utvecklings- och samhällsomformning (figur), och de involverade parterna är:

• Privata företag
• Utvecklings- och biståndsorganisationer
• I botten på pyramidenkonsumenter
• I botten på pyramiden entreprenörer
• Civila samhällsorganisationer och lokala regeringar

10. Det anpassningsbara användargränssnitt för heterogena konsumentbehov.
11. Fördelningsmetoder bör designas för att nå både mycket utspridda marknader på landet och tättbefolkade stadsmarknader.
12. Fokusera på en bred arkitektur, möjliggör för en snabb och lätt inkorporering av nya förutsättningar.
