Thank you for this very interesting research article. You discuss how t it can be very useful to by-pass partnerships with large NGOs or government agencies and instead partner with local NGO’s. This seems logical, but it seems to me that only a more developed society would have a healthy NGO sector. You briefly mention partnering with local entrepreneurs, but I wonder if you know of any examples of projects on which large business has primarily partnered with small, local business to develop products for the local poor. I’m thinking of a kind of mentorship, I guess. Thank you!
