Silicon Valley is the innovation and entrepreneurial capital of the world, giving  AcrossWorld Development Partners access to  the  know-how and resources to lead market expansion, with sustainability, in and to the developing world. 

AcrossWorld recognizes that technology, policy, government, education and societal needs are all equally relevant to the vitality of emerging markets. The company is deeply connected in all these areas.

Acrossworld Development Partners currently has eight projects in varying stages of progress from concept to funding, in eight very important areas. It has strong relationships in the World Bank and UNDP and is now seen as contributing innovative thinking in the areas of e-governance and open source. Its GTA and Assisted Living projects both provide an opportunity to explore new business and distribution models. India Post and Country Assessment are extremely high-level, high profile activities involving national level policy, economics and business intelligence. While not all of these projects will proceed, the basic foundations for Acrossworld Development Partners to enhance relationships and involvement in innovative ICT and business intelligence are in place.
