Description
The IDB intends to contract consulting services to Develop a Policy Framework and Road Map for the Development of an Innovation Sandbox for Barbados.
The consulting services have the objective of developing a policy and operational framework to assist the government of Barbados in developing a global innovation sandbox that can attract international businesses conducting research and development and/or global startups. The consultancy will include identifying sectors in which to develop the sandbox and recommending strategies to promote linkages between businesses in the sandbox and the wider Barbadian business and entrepreneurial community. The contract is expected to be completed within a period of seven (7) months, with an estimated budget of USD 100,000. This consultancy is part of a larger project whose objective is to position Barbados as a test bed for globally oriented innovative start-ups which could have positive entrepreneurial and growth externalities to the rest of the economy.
