Project Infusion

35% of people in India earned less than $1 a day last year. And this situation is not unique to India. The world’s population is mostly poor, with fully 65% — four billion people — earning less than $2,000 per year.

Project Infusion is a template for a transformational business that can change the way of life for the four billion people at the bottom of the economic pyramid. It creates infrastructure, tools and services to improve an individual’s ability to function in the marketplace. The Infusion network supports simplified input/output devices that access wirelessly networked servers. With all data and software resident on the servers, grid computing supplies low-cost, high-powered computing for business, personal and community activities.

Project Infusion demonstrates how a high-technology company or consortium of companies can make money “infusing” the means for billions of people at the bottom of the pyramid to work more productively and live more proactively.

The Infusion system is a wireless computer network through which all computation, data storage and software services are provided, requiring users only to pay a nominal subscription fee and purchase, lease or rent a low-cost input/output device. The system’s infrastructure and applications bring the power of the information age to the bottom of the pyramid by taking advantage of:
- Shared Buying Power.
- Cooperative Business.
- Economies of Scale.

Corporations not only can do business with considerable success at the bottom of the economic pyramid, they can be highly instrumental in bootstrapping fledgling economies.
