12th Business Opportunities Fair 2024
9 to 10 October 2024

In 2024, ADB conducted its second in-person Business Opportunities Fair (BOF) after the pandemic.

The ADB BOF is a one-stop forum for consultants, contractors, manufacturers, suppliers, and civil society organizations looking to provide goods, works, and services for ADB projects. It has proven to be an excellent opportunity to network with peers in the industry and with ADB specialists in the energy, transport, water, urban development, climate change, agriculture, environment, public management, finance, health, and education sectors.
