About

NextBillion curates and publishes business development opportunities available to enterprises working in low- and middle-income countries. These may include accelerators, competitions, fellowships, funding opportunities, incubators, requests for proposals, and training courses. Our staff sources many of these items, but readers can submit items of their own. To submit an opportunity, click on the “Submit BizDev Opportunity” button above.
 
Please note: NextBillion is not the organizer of these opportunities, we do not perform in-depth vetting of individual opportunities or organizations, and we source many of them online. So plan to conduct your own due diligence before applying.
