Betavine Social Exchange - "Mobile Technology for Social Change"

Betavine Social Exchange (BSX) helps people work together to create mobile-based solutions for the developing world. It does this by facilitating cooperation between non-government & community based organisations, mobile developers and potential sponsors.

How does it actually work?
Anyone can upload a challenge outlining a problem they think could be solved by mobile apps or services. Then everyone in the community joins the discussion to create a sustainable solution, this is partly the technical solution provided by Betavine Developers and uploaded to a solutions page, and partly a commercially viable deployment route provided by organisations or individuals who have registered with BSX as Support Partners.

This presents a fabulous opportunity for bright open minded individuals or teams to cooperate on real challenges faced by the developing world. Uniquely, BSX focuses not just on the technical part of the solution, but also on the sustainability of those solutions. So students of business, marketing and economics also have an opportunity to participate in the teams working on a wide range of challenges in the domains of healthcare, education, security and the environment.

There are software development guides and tools available on the site or you can provide creativity and design ideas in the solution space.
