  1. Catalyzing Social Impact • Goizueta MBA students gain valuable experience developing creative solutions to the complex challenges currently faced by individuals and organizations striving for meaningful social impacts. • Client partners specify a project and are promised a minimum of 400 pro-bono “billable hours”. Projects launch on first day of the spring semester and findings and recommendations are presented to a audience of key stakeholders and interested individuals on the last days of the semester. • Engagements begin with and are guided by a clear understanding of the commitment we are making to our clients. In this respect, projects have regular deliverables. • Our clients benefit from the insights and recommendations that emanate from our students’ accumulated business acumen.

  2. Grameen Bank – the global micro lending program that began in Bangladesh – operates in the U.S. as Grameen America. They are based in New York and currently operate six branches in three U.S. cities.

  3. Our Project • Grameen America is currently exploring the possibility of expanding operations into Atlanta. They approached Goizueta Business School and requested a market analysis that will help them understand the Atlanta market and determine where to establish their first Atlanta branch. • Our Precedents: • “Grameen America: Micro-credit for low-income communities in the San Francisco Bay Area” (Columbia University) • “Grameen America – Indianapolis Market Research” (Kelley School of Business, Indiana University) • We are looking for three more team members with • solid quantitative skills; and/or • solid marketing research skills

  4. Interested? • If you are interested, send a one-page expression of interest (including a clear statement of what you would bring to the team) along with a resume to Ellen Williams of Peter Roberts (both on First Class) ASAP.
