The emerging markets 'innovation du jour' post comes from our friends at the World Resources Institute. To be frank, the post in question on their nextbillion.net blog is a year old. However, it is still attracting requests for franchise information and entrepreneurs from as diverse a range of places as Mozambique, India, and California.
The post may be dated but it says a lot about the lead taken by some emerging markets as sources of innovation and incubators of environmentally-friendly enterprises. Just as importantly for our purposes, it says even more about the global market for innovation and clean technologies. It's alive and well and taking full advantage of the consumer-led blogosphere's promise.

I have been thinking about the concept of Waterless car washes . it would be great in countries like India where water is always a premium and seems like a waste when many have to go miles to get water,
Today there has not been a successful car wash business as people usually oay the driver or office boy to do it. In the coming years with the boom in India there wont be any office boys or drivers so people will look for ways to do these things at a gas statsion
