Our Work

In India, USAID builds partnerships with private sector organizations to achieve greater impact.  USAID combines technical assistance with financial tools such as blended finance, partial credit guarantees, and returnable grants to encourage corporate, philanthropic, government and entrepreneurial investment across all sectors.  Empowering entrepreneurs, particularly women, to grow their businesses and integrate into the formal economy is a cornerstone of USAID’s work.

Our Impact

USAID’s approach to partnerships, innovation and finance in India has led to the financing, creation and testing of several hundred technologies, some of which have been commercialized and scaled in India and globally.  Recent medical innovations, including technology to optimize vaccine supply chains, benefited 43 million people alone.
