Congrats to UW BPC 2007 Winner!
The University of Washington Center Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship announced today that "IndEx – Agri Exchange of India" won the $25K grand prize. See http://bschool.washington.edu/cie/bpc/. I was fortunate to have been a judge for the competition this year; there were some great ideas.
And IndEx is certainly one of them … with the potential to benefit several thousand rural Indian farmers by helping to ensure that they get a fair price for their goods. The basic premise is to match buyers and sellers via SMS over mobile phones!
