Small Business Membership


The subcontractors, suppliers, and local NGOs that make development happen

Devex connects Small Business Members to over €200 billion in contract and grant opportunities from the World Bank, United Nations, EuropeAid, USAID, IADB, ADB, DFID, and leading implementing organizations. If you have a service or product that can assist international development, we want to help you provide it.


Become a Small Business Member


This membership is for organizations that seek small to mid-size projects and are interested in subcontracting on international development projects to larger organizations. Small Business Members typically have limited recruitment needs, unlike larger consulting firms and NGOs. If this describes your organization, consider joining our Small Business Membership.


We can assist you in three important ways:

  1. Connecting you to leading consulting companies and NGOs that require subcontractors
  2. Marketing you to thousands of donor officials from over 115 foreign aid agencies
  3. Helping you identify specific projects that you can pursue


There are many sources of procurement notices. Small Business Membership does provide the most comprehensive international development procurement notice service, with notices from 115 foreign aid agencies.


Small Business Membership is priced to be affordable for small organizations or small departments in larger organizations. It is meant for those professionals who understand that reading a procurement notice alone is not a successful business development strategy. Marketing, networking, and targeting opportunities ideally suited to your organization is the key to successfully serving the international development marketplace, and Small Business Membership is designed precisely for that purpose.

(Please note: Small Business Membership does not include access to our database of 75,000 professionals and their CVs for recruitment purposes. Only limited access for networking purposes is available to Small Business Members. Organizations with greater recruitment needs should consider Executive Membership.)
