About

Entrepreneurs in developing countries face many challenges in their journey to launch high-growth companies. Yet when they succeed, entrepreneurs can act as powerful agents of change — reducing inefficiencies, creating jobs, and boosting economic development.

infoDev is a World Bank Group multi-donor program that supports entrepreneurs in developing economies. It oversees a global network of business incubators and innovation hubs for climate technology, agribusiness, and digital entrepreneurs. It also publishes educational resources on topics like crowdfunding, angel investing, and business incubator management.

Through Climate Innovation Centers, Mobile Application Labs (mLabs), and Agribusiness Entrepreneurship Centers, it connects entrepreneurs with the knowledge, funding, and markets they need to grow their businesses. Its inspiring clients work in the Caribbean, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Morocco, South Africa, Vietnam, and more.

infoDev serves its clients, partners, and the development community by:

  • Piloting programs to accelerate the growth of agribusiness, climate technology, and digital startups in developing countries
  • Publishing research to share knowledge about business incubation, access to finance, and the characteristics of high-growth entrepreneurs
