Encouraged by a vibrant startup ecosystem in Bangladesh, the United Nations Technology Bank for Least Developed Countries along with the UNDP and the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs have launched a global call for entrepreneurs to find innovative solutions for financial inclusion in Bangladesh.
The move comes at a time when the UN Technology Bank is also planning to establish a regional hub for innovation in Dhaka.
These initiatives come as part of the SDG Impact Accelerator (SDGia), a global accelerator launched by the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs and UNDP in 2018. Recently, SDGia opened its second global call for impact entrepreneurs to find innovative solutions for SDG-related complex development challenges. During the second SDGia program, startups will work on products and services in the field of financial inclusion in Bangladesh and digital agriculture in Uganda.
