The delegation programme provides a structured framework to maximize participation at the BOF, enabling companies to build high-level connections while exploring concrete business opportunities within ADB-financed projects.
Target participants:
Consultants, consulting firms, contractors, manufacturers, suppliers/traders, as well as NGOs, government representatives, and research institutions interested in international development projects.
