We work in systems. But we start with people.

IDev Strategy is a boutique consulting firm that specializes in designing and delivering place-based solutions for complex development challenges.

Grounded in two decades of experience across global development, policy, and investment ecosystems, IDev Strategy blends the rigor of research, the practicality of lived context, and the tools to unlock capital, insight, and traction where it’s needed most.

Formerly known as iDev Africa, we have partnered with governments, multilaterals, foundations, and social enterprises across Africa, the United States, and the United Kingdom.

Our specialty? Local context. Whether it’s scoping for a business or development project, financing for rural innovation, stakeholder mapping, or investment strategies for emerging systems, we clarify complexities and find grounded solutions.

Our network is extensive across Africa and the U.S.
