Stepping up in times of crisis: How a supply chain optimization startup is keeping communities stable. 🚚 Small shops and neighborhood merchants in Bangladesh are the backbone of their communities, ensuring access to food, daily essentials, and supplies. These small businesses account for 97% of the country’s consumption and are often the only source for daily needs, especially during times of crisis. These merchants are more than just points of transaction—they represent trust, familiarity, and support in their communities, offering credit options and driving local employment and economic growth. The ongoing political crisis has highlighted the growing challenges in Bangladesh's retail sector. Fragmented supply chains have created inefficiencies, disrupting the distribution of essentials—especially when people had limited hours to shop. PriyoShop - a B2B marketplace empowering MSMEs by connecting them directly to suppliers- stepped up to address this gap. By leveraging technology, they’re solving problems in traditional industries and maintaining a seamless supply chain for these vital shops. PriyoShop’s efforts ensured the availability of essential items like rice, lentils, flour, salt, sugar, and cooking oil, all while prioritizing safety to protect the community. Orbit is proud to back companies like PriyoShop that empower small businesses and maintain community stability.

Unlocking investment opportunities in Emerging Markets 🌎 At BEYOND Expo 2024, Oscar Ramos, Managing General Partner at Orbit Startups, shares insights on harnessing investment opportunities in emerging regions like Latin America and what we can learn from Asia’s wins. 💡 Micro SMEs in Asia have moved from paper-based operations to fully digital mobile SaaS solutions, adopting business models that differ significantly from those in developed economies. 💡 Asian investors have a significant opportunity to bring not just capital but also expertise, networks, and connections to Latin America. Brazil has been nurturing strong relationships with Asia with local companies successfully employing Asia strategies to scale and become leaders in their home market. This approach proved successful in Southeast Asia, where many companies received funding and strategic support from other Asian investors, ultimately creating strong local winners. #BeyondExpo2024 #EmergingMarkets #Digitization #Innovation #Investment #LatinAmerica #Asia #investors #startups
