• Technology: well accepted, different experiences in India vs. Kenya

• We add value: • Entrepreneurs making upfront investments of between $25 -

$1500; low attrition rate

• Network values knowledge and training

• Supply chain: SM “pull” model, did not work

• Hub & Spoke model: requires mutually beneficial relationships
