Iqbal Quadir says mobiles fight poverty

Posted by: Kaustav Bhattacharya in Information Technology, Telecommunications, tags:

I recently came across an inspirational talk given by Iqbal Quadir, a business man or Bangladeshi origin, who says that mobiles can fight poverty. He came up with a novel way of utilising the power of the mobile to generate revenue, help alleviate poverty in Bangladesh and empower the people to be the change instead of relying solely upon government to do everything for the people. I wanted to share this inspirational video with you all. Comments are most welcome.
