one of the amazing things about pursuing the idea of ReelImpact is that there is no end to social issues to tackle and likewise there is no end to the solutions business can address to mitigate / solve those issues.
take for instance, the Design for Extreme Affordability class, taught in the d.school with GSB Professor, Jim Patell. One of this quarter's projects is creating (that's right, creating) an infant incubator that can be sold in Nepal. the challenge of course is making it cheap enough (yet at high enough quality) so that people can both buy it and gain value from its use.
challenging, yet rewarding. trying to arrange for a team member to blog about his experience in bringing this project to fruition. stay tuned.
