eLengo: Building Business Models to Address Macro-Opportunities (A)
內容大綱
By the end of 2018, a recent business program graduate had found that his first social enterprise had been a success, and he wanted to start his next venture in the Kenyan agricultural market. He identified three challenges in this area—climate change, lack of market access, and ineffective education systems—and he wanted to try to address one of these with a new business. Case A explores how he needed to perform a market assessment to understand the opportunities and constraints of the Kenyan market, identify the resources and processes that would be available to him when starting the business, and form strategies for performing customer research.

This two-part case explores how an entrepreneur may approach building a business that helps to alleviate a large-scale societal challenge. Moreover, it gives students unique exposure to a start-up in the developing world.
