Base of the Pyramid Learning Lab Network

It was founded and is currently headed by Prof. Stuart Hart, who co-authored the path-breaking 2002 article "Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid: Eradicating Poverty through Profits" (Prof. C K Prahalad of the Ross School of Business, University of Michigan was the other author).
