Description: This is a pre-funding opportunity announcement only. No applications are requested at this time. Please hold all questions/requests for information as they will not be responded to until the full announcement (RFA) is issued. This notice in no way obligates USAID to release a solicitation or award. Issuance of a RFA will be subject to internal USAID approvals and the availability of funds.

The CA will support an organization, or consortium of organizations with one legal entity as primary lead, to catalyze the transfer of scalable technology across the South and Southeast Asia regions, with a particular focus on Feed the Future (FTF) focus countries Bangladesh, Cambodia, and Nepal. The program will consist of four components: 1. The first component will be horticulture. The Recipient will identify a compelling regional horticultural problem, for which effective solutions can be explored through technology innovation and diffusion, preferably in partnership with regional private sector and/or academic partners. 2. The second component, with conditions similar to the above, will be aquaculture. The aquaculture interventions should aim to improve the sustainability of production. 3.The third component reflects USAID/RDMA’s overarching vision for the activity, and will require the Recipient to develop and deliver an approach for identifying and implementing interventions addressing important regional agriculture or food security problems, through broad engagement with relevant stakeholders across the region. 4. The fourth component will be dynamic and flexible and will respond to the specific requests of the bilateral USAID FTF missions for support in addressing a problem through transferred technology. This component will be primarily bilateral mission initiated, designed, and funded.

What is Value Ad?
Value Ad is an innovative policy designed to foster a mutually beneficial relationship between two key groups: new businesses and service providers. This policy helps startups save significantly on essential services while enabling service providers to gain valuable traction and growth opportunities.
How is it a Win-Win Deal?
For New Businesses:
Cost Savings: Startups can save 50% to 80% on essential services such as website development and marketing. This means they don’t need to invest heavily upfront, making it easier to launch and grow their business.
Alternative Investment: The money saved through these discounts can be reinvested into other critical areas of the business, acting as an alternative investment that fuels further growth and development.
For Service Providers:
Initial Customer Base: Service providers, often tech startups themselves, can attract a significant number of initial customers by offering their services at a discounted rate. This helps them build traction and demonstrate value, which is crucial for attracting venture capital (VC) funding and other opportunities.
Marketing Efficiency: By providing affordable services, service providers do not need to spend heavily on marketing to acquire new customers. The discounted services themselves become a powerful marketing tool, bringing in customers who can spread the word and enhance the provider’s reputation.
Growth and Expansion: Attracting more customers through Value Ad helps service providers expand their client base and build long-term relationships, which can lead to increased revenue and business growth.
Alternative Investment for New Businesses:
For new businesses, the significant cost savings achieved through the Value Ad policy effectively serve as an alternative investment. Instead of spending large amounts on website development and marketing, they can leverage the affordable services provided by service providers. The saved funds can be redirected into other strategic areas of the business, enhancing overall growth and sustainability.
Benefits for Service Providers:
Service providers benefit from the Value Ad policy by gaining access to a ready pool of new customers who are drawn by the discounted rates. This initial customer base is crucial for:
Building Traction: Demonstrating product or service viability to potential investors.
Securing Funding: Enhanced customer traction and a growing user base can make the service provider more attractive to venture capitalists and other funding sources.
Market Penetration: Establishing a presence in the market quickly and efficiently without heavy marketing expenditures.
In Summary:
Value Ad is a strategic policy designed to create a win-win scenario for both new businesses and service providers. By offering significant discounts on essential services, startups can save and reinvest those savings, while service providers gain crucial initial customers and market traction. This mutually beneficial arrangement supports the growth and success of both groups, making Value Ad a powerful tool for business development and investment.
