Q: "Who wrote the BoP Protocol?"
A: "Not BRINQ."

The BoP Protocol is the work of the BoP Protocol Working Group, which is directed out of Cornell University. So although you see a lot of stories about the Base of the Pyramid Protocol here on BRINQ.com, BRINQ is not in any way institutionally involved in the Protocol. We didn't write it, we don't run it, we don't decide how it's being developed. As the only web site that had been actively writing about the Protocol for some time, there was a lot of confusion over the question of authorship in the past. We have to apologize for not having made that more clear.

Stuart Hart, Erik Simanis, Gordon Enk, and Duncan Duke (the four Protocol directors at Cornell) have guided a ground-breaking piece of work, check out more at the newly designed

BoP-Protocol.org.

With that all being said, both people here have been integrally involved with the Protocol as individuals, you can read more detail about Patrick and Sheri's involvement here.
