What’s the best way to build up new markets?

BBC World Service - The Forum, What’s the best way to build up new markets?

How do we encourage enterprise in a way that benefits lots of people, not just a few?

Are you a budding entrepreneur? This week’s programme might give you some useful insights into the challenges of breaking into new markets.

How do we ensure that opening up new markets helps to build up the economies of the developing world? And what role should women play in it? Bridget Kendall is joined by Sherry Coutu, a seasoned angel investor from Canada; leading Ugandan coffee entrepreneur Andrew Rugasira; and Oxford University anthropologist Catherine Dolan who studies the intersection of business and poverty.
