Iqbal Quadir nos cuenta cómo sus experiencias de niño en la zona pobre de Bangladesh, y más tarde como banquero en Nueva York, le llevaron a poner en marcha un operador de telefonía móvil que conecta a 80 millones de personas en el ámbito rural bangladesí... y a convertirse en un campeón del desarrollo local.
