DEVELOPERS WITHOUT BORDERSTechnology for Humanity

We’re going to tell you how we match technical talent to solve problems in low income markets worldwide.

We are Developers Without Borders

But first, why…

Google Loon Project Project Loon is a network of balloons traveling on the edge of space, designed to connect people in rural and remote areas, help fill coverage gaps, and bring people back online after disasters.

In 2016 Google will deploy balloons all over Sri Lanka.

Facebook’s Internet.org Internet.org is a program that partners with local telecom companies in developing countries, to provide free internet services through www.internet.org to those in low income countries who have had no previous access to the internet.

1 year after launch, 9 million people went online.

Growing Mobile Proliferation GDP growth rate in developing nations raises by as much as 1.2% with every 10% increase in mobile penetration.

There are already 4.5 billion phones in developing countries, and growing.

Of the 2/3 unconnected people in the world, many will get on the internet in coming years.

So how will we service these underrepresented people?

This presents an immense opportunity to deliver information and services to those who need it most And an opportunity for developers to rally together
