The competition encourages the development of business models that generate profit and support poverty reduction by matchmaking the proponents with promising business plans to mentors and potential investors. The 100,000 cash award to the 10 best entries were surely a great draw, but more than the cash, competitors were attracted to the possibility of being mentored by specialists and being matched with prospective investors.

We were asked to review this charcoal by a reader, so we contacted the distributor who was kind enough to send us a sample for a review. However, as the distributor warned us, this is not really meant to compete with lump charcoal. Here is what the distributor told us about the product: "This charcoal was not meant to be used for low and slow cooking, nor was it designed to compete with the likes of Royal Oak lump. This is supposed to be a better, cleaner, more convenient and more efficient alternative to regular and matchlight briquets."
