Tech entrepreneurs across Jamaica are set to benefit from capacity grant funding from the Development Bank of Jamaica (DBJ), which will be accessed through TBR Lab.

TBR Lab is a high-level tech accelerator committed to the growth and development of high-potential tech entrepreneurs in Jamaica and the wider Caribbean. The DBJ has announced that it will provide a capacity building grant to TBR Lab in the amount of US$150,000 to the accelerator that will result in some 30 Jamaican tech start-ups benefitting this year.

 

This support for TBR Lab is the first in a series of grants for incubators and accelerators supporting Jamaican entrepreneurs that will be made under the DBJ’s Boosting Innovation Growth and Entrepreneurship Ecosystems (BIGEE) Programme. This programme is funded by a Government of Jamaica US$25-million loan from the Inter-American Development Bank and being executed by the DBJ.
