KOICA’s new
development models

15. Background of
New Model for
Development
15
01
Emerge of BOP Market
 The number of people who live
on less than $2 a day (BOP,
Bottom of the Pyramid) is
estimated to be 4 billion
 Growth of inclusive business
which targets BOP market of $5
trillion Inclusive Innovation :
Pursuit of “More from Less for
More”
02 Post-2015 Development
Cooperation Agenda &
Scientific Innovation
 SDGs Report
Emphasis on scientific technology as a
method of implementation for providing
solutions for economic & social
problems in
developing countries
 Promoting knowledge sharing
and regional & international
cooperation in the field of
scientific technology
03
 Discover, verify, and spread a
variety of creative solutions
through open challenge program,
such as GCD&DIV of USAID
Open Innovation Platform
 Open platform which actively
accepts ideas from outside, in order
to enable “Value Creation”

16. KOICA tried to solve development problems with many
methods such as projects, fellowship programs, public-private
partnership programs and volunteer programs for 25 years.
BUT there are many challenges these conventional
methods cannot solve in recent times.

DEEP
(Development
Experience Exchange
Partnership)
PPP
(Public Private
Partnership)

17. KOICA realized that we needed to reflect Fresh ideas &
Technology from new players such as Private Sectors,
Enterpreneur, the Youth etc.
We needed Innovators & Start-up companies to come
and participate in the development field.
We needed an Open innovative platform with
International partners they could easily access.
