Join hosts BoP Innovation Center, Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship and Practical Action as we explore the latest innovations in last mile distribution (LMD)!
The event will start with a short presentation from each of our panelists (see registration link), who will share the cutting-edge innovations in their LMD projects. We will then divide into a dynamic world café format to identify and discuss other innovations in the sector and to what extent they are delivering impact and scale; as well as those areas where innovation is still needed. We will end with report outs of the robust conversations and identify next steps. The event will close with an opportunity to network around a drink in the beautiful Vincent’s Club.
If you’re interested in how to bring socially impactful products – be they solar lights, water filters, clean cookstoves, nutritious food, spectacles or sanitary napkins – to people at the base of the pyramid effectively and at scale, come and join this exciting conversation with social entrepreneurs, investors, donors, NGOs, and technology manufacturers!
