Roshan: Light at the end of the tunnel in Afghanistan
By: Herman B. Leonard and Qahir Dhanani
Abstract
Roshan is a highly successful telecommunications company founded by the Aga Khan fund for economic development in Afghanistan during an ongoing civil conflict. Company leaders must now decide financial and market strategy for the next phase of development of the company. Should they sell the company—and reinvest the proceeds in another socially oriented venture? Continue to operate and expand the company? Expand to other neighboring countries?
