Dear Kumaran,

I also submitted a proposal on behalf of my organization, AllWorld Network. One of the programs we have is getting off the ground in South AFrica and is the South Africa 100, and effort to find the 100 fastest growing private companies of SA. The South Africa 100 is part of the larger Africa 100.

There may be a nice point of intersection between our efforts. Our mission is focused on finding and bringing to worldwide attention all the growth entrepreneurs of the emerging world by 2015. If you have a moment look at AllWorldLive.com and we can chat.

Sincerely, Anne Habiby

Hi Anne
Thanks for writing in. Although my site caters for funding for start-ups and very small emerging companies, right up to established, the majority that access my site for funding are small start-ups. As such , these are at the bottom of the scale of companies you are looking for. I had a look at your site and it seems great. I think its especially good, because Michael Porter is an icon, and his book on stategy has an immense contribution to business. A question: what is the benefit of joining, or being listed. Is there something more than the exposure from being on you site? Regards Kumaran.
