As part of Global Entrepreneurship Week (https://genglobal.org/georgia), USAID will present an information session on Development Innovation Ventures (DIV), USAID’s open innovation program that tests and scales creative solutions to any global development challenge.  DIV provides flexible, tiered grant funding to test new ideas, take strategic risks, build evidence of what works, and advance the best solutions. The three focus areas of DIV are: rigorous evidence of impact, cost-effectiveness, and a viable pathway to scale and sustainability.  DIV is an open door to USAID - anyone, anywhere can apply at any time.  By investing in breakthrough innovations driven by rigorous evidence, USAID impacts millions of lives at a fraction of the usual cost.   

This information session will take place at the Georgian Innovation and Technology Agency's Technopark in Tbilisi, Georgia, on November 15, 2018 from 16:00-17:30.  

RSVP is required to attend. To RSVP, please complete this form by 12:00 p.m., November 13, 2018.
