Conducting an Assessment of Opportunities and Risks that Social Enterprises Face in Myanmar

2013

Overview

Village Capital uses the power of peer support to build enterprises that change the world. Inspired by the concept of the “village bank” in microfinance and peer support groups, Village Capital puats the hard tasks of building companies (i.e. criticism, strategy, feedback, and legwork) in the hands of entrepreneurs.
