What we do
Our work in these topics, aligned with the IDB Group’s Vision 2025, addresses specific challenges: How to foster climate and environmental resilience and adaptation, increase access to quality services, and generate greater livelihood opportunities throughout life? And we do it leveraging technology and new business models to accelerate and disrupt industries for the benefit of vulnerable populations.

IDB Lab generates impact by promoting the development of industries and business models that offer solutions to people in vulnerable situations due to economic, social or environmental conditions. We are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations as a tool to focus our efforts.
