K. Prahalad, Phd My name is Professor Pedro Guilherme Kraus, Phd. I’m the Senior Director of Santa Trade (Santa Catarina Trade and Cultural Office – Brazil ) and I teach International Marketing in the MBA Programs of FGV (Getúlio Vargas Foundation), one of the leading educational institutions in Brazil . You can find more information about the professional activities I am engaged in by accessing my company’s website: www.ibi-americas.com.br. Santa Trade , which is a private organization associated with FACISC (Federation of Business Associations of Santa Catarina), is organizing the National CACB Congress, a national event, which will be welcoming all the Brazilian Federations of Business Associations in our State capital, Florianópolis. This event will take place on November, 7th and 8th of this year and will be attended by about 1200 participants. I have been using, in my classes, the practical examples you provide in your book: The Fortune at the Bottom of the Pyramid: Eradicating poverty through profits, enabling dignity and choice through markets, especially Casas Bahia’s case, which happens to about the success this Brazilian retailer has had by focusing on low income population. Therefore, it is an honor for the organizers (myself included) to invite you to give a lecture about the cases you present in your book. This lecture should last from 90 to 180 minutes and could be not only about Casas Bahia, but also about other examples you may have. We would be deeply honored by your confirmation and would like to know all the costs involved in your participation. Besides the fee, we will also pay for food and hotel in Brazil and the air transportation to get here. I look forward to hearing from you, Sincerely, Prof. Pedro G.

I was simply amazed by the way you think and look at the future. I am sure, thinking differently and thoroughly will make difference. As a small business owner with mere turnover of US$ 1 m in India, I am more interested to hear from your side, what small things we could do to survive in these competing world? It is hard for me to simply put the existing business on side and think about innovation the way you suggest. Any suggestions? Thanks for opening my eyes and making me look differently.
