Our Vision

Each year, international development agencies such as the World Bank and foundations such as the Gates Foundation spend over 200 billion Euros on projects to improve lives in the developing world. We are doing our small part to empower the professionals who implement these projects to spend each of those euros, dollars, pounds, and yen more efficiently toward more effective development projects.
It's time to open up the development industry to new participants and ideas – by creating partnerships among firms and NGOs from around the world and by increasing the involvement of the people of the developing world. It's time to spend more money on the development projects themselves and less on administrative expenses. It's time that we ensure development assistance truly brings about development.
We know that today’s international development professionals are seeking out innovative tools to make their work more efficient and effective, rather than just relying on old methods of doing business. That’s why we have a vision to "Do Good. Do It Well.™" by supporting all of you who make development happen. We are a small, focused organization and we are striving to be your first resource and your long-term partner for improving lives in the developing world.
We are working to connect all international development professionals in this global network, and we invite you tojoin us.
