Inclusive Business Accelerator

Netherlands

The IB Accelerator facilitates the acceleration of impactful entrepreneurship in BoP markets. They do this by building a structure that supports the delivery of substantial numbers of investment-ready inclusive business plans that improve the well-being of people at the base of the pyramid. Investing in four components to create a one stop shop for businesses to innovate, grow, replicate and improve their inclusive business strategy. To play a catalysing role in providing tailored inclusive business services demands business and financial knowledge as well as experience in local markets. The BoP Innovation Center, SNV, Venture Capital for Africa and Nyenrode Business School combine these fields of expertise. The IB Accelerator receives co-funding support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Government of the Netherlands.
