Which projects USAID’s Development Innovation Ventures typically does not fund?

There are some types of projects that are not a good fit for Development Innovation Ventures’ (DIV) objectives. These include but are not limited to the following:

  • Innovations at the idea stage that have not yet been created (i.e., that are in the ideation phase);
  • Projects with limited potential to scale or minimal potential to demonstrate impact and cost-effectiveness (e.g., a jewelry business or construction of immobile physical infrastructure, including schools, power plants or lines, and factories);
  • Basic scientific research (e.g., laboratory research of a prototype with no field testing);
  • Expansion of businesses that are unlikely to lead to significant development impacts (e.g., businesses that lack a base-of-the-pyramid customer focus);
  • Planning, diagnostic, and other tools that are difficult to link directly to measurable development impacts for people living in poverty and that reach millions of people only indirectly (e.g., a stand-alone monitoring or evaluation platform);
  • Innovations that are applicable only in very limited contexts that will limit scale potential (e.g., projects that target a very rare disease);
  • Pure research or research that will provide evidence of impact but will not assess cost-effectiveness or scalability; and
  • Intermediaries with an indirect impact on development outcomes (e.g., incubators, accelerators, start-up boot camps, and other conveners).

The deadline for submitting the applications is 30-Sep-21.
