Hi Ethan,
I noticed you covered Africa and international development recently in your blog and thought it ties in nicely with what Pioneers of Prosperity is trying to achieve.
I represent PoP, an award programme which brings together top African businesses, investors, presidents and NGOs to celebrate and recognise torch-bearing companies in Africa.
Today, our 2nd ever event has started in Kigali, Rwanda, and I thought you would be interested in learning about it and perhaps getting information about the winning announcement due tomorrow.
In the mean time you can visit our site http://www.pioneersofprosperity.org or find information about us on Facebook, YouTube and African Village.
PoP is a fantastic cause that aims to create powerful role models that will inspire the next-generation of African business leaders.
The event sees ten finalists, which include four female entrepreneurs, compete in a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style pitch to four well-known judges, for a life changing Grand Prize of $100,000.
Talk to you soon!
Rowan
