‘Innovations in Services for Urban Poor Awards’, is latest initiative of India Urban Space Foundation that seeks to identify, reward and celebrate the success of the best innovations in reaching out and delivering services to the urban poor. This award program is anchored by India Urban Space Foundation, with support from The World Bank – SIDA Partnership.
One comes across the effective confluence of business entrepreneurship and social development, through a number of successful innovations with the urban poor in cities across India. At IUSF, we firmly believe the power of these emerging innovations lie in
Their ability to create enduring value and transform the quality of life of urban poor
Tthe potential they hold to inform policies, programs and fund allocations at National, State and City level Governments.
The possibility of creating large scale impact when replicated and scaled up
The opportunity they provide to the entrepreneurs to create wealth while serving the bottom of the pyramid
The ‘Innovations in Services for Urban Poor Awards’ will unearth success stories – large and small, celebrate the successes and widely disseminate the lessons learnt.
