Statement by W. Robert de Jongh, Managing Director, SNV in Latin America, on the passing of Coimbatore Krishnarao (known as CK) Prahalad, the Harvey C. Fruehauf Professor of Business Administration at the University of Michigan Business School and a longstanding and outstanding member of WRI’s Board of Directors.
“CK Prahalad was an inspiring thinker and visionary committed to innovative solutions that had the potential to transform the practice of business — relentlessly pursuing that “next practice” through which business could do well by doing good. As one of the father’s of “inclusive business,” Prahalad embodied the wisdom, patience, and intelligence required to catalyse a movement that we as SNV and in his honour, are proud to continue to embrace, advance, strengthen and scale in Latin America and around the world. He will be missed, but his legacy will continue.”

On Friday 30 April, Karime Pávez, SNV's Advisor and specialist in Base of the Pyramid, will conduct a training session called "Knowing a Universe of Opportunities: the Base of the Pyramid". The "training breakfast" will take place in the Communications School of San Martin de Porres' University, Lima, from 8am to 9.30am.
Karime will talk about the potential that this group of low-income people has and how it is becoming an emergent market offering great opportunities to pioneering companies.
Her presentation will focus on Inclusive Businesses with consumers. These initiatives create sustainable and beneficial relationships between consumers and companies.
The challenge is knowing the members of the Base of the pyramid in depth, their habits and behaviours, where do they live, how are they organised, etc. Thanks to that information innovative solutions can be designed and adapted to their reality and their demand.
