About us

Built for the clients the big firms walk past.

As the name suggests, Billion Next BoP Solutions serves clients who are overlooked by large professional service firms, along with the organisations whose own customers and clients sit at the bottom of the pyramid: farmer collectives, social enterprises, development programmes, SMEs and MSMEs.

We bring the rigour of corporate consulting to that work: field research that holds up to scrutiny, business plans that lenders can act on, and open-source technology that a small enterprise can actually afford to run.

  • Research rigour Value chain, baseline and feasibility work grounded in primary field data.
  • Affordable technology Open-source ERP and digitisation sized for SMEs and MSMEs.
  • Practitioner training Hands-on programmes from people who build and run these enterprises.
