Md. Saifullah Al Taheri has studied early warning systems and food security in Bangladesh's climate-vulnerable coastal regions, and later moved into market research, client communication, and database management.

Now he's bringing all of it to Innovision Consulting as a Junior Associate in Business Development and Communications, where he's working on proposals, project bids, and the systems that keep our pipeline moving.

An economics graduate from the University of Barishal, Saifullah understands both the problems our sector works on and the process of winning the work. It's work that depends on knowing what the numbers mean on the ground, not just what they say on paper.

Join us in welcoming Saifullah to the team!

In J&J Fireside | Episode 9, fiscal economist Jyoti Rahman and Md. Rubaiyath Sarwar, Managing Director at Innovision Consulting, trade the usual economics for World Cup season, and find just as much data. Speaking from Cairo and Dhaka, they unpack how a month of football moves markets far beyond the pitch.

Originally featured on Counterpoint, the conversation covers:
• Why this year's expanded World Cup is projected to add $40.9 billion to global GDP
• What Qatar's $220 billion spend vs. this year's $8 billion reveals about smart infrastructure bets
• The "Olympic curse," and why mega-events so often precede national crises
• Bangladesh's own World Cup economy, from jersey sales to kit exports
• Why diaspora talent may be the country's most underused sporting asset

Fiscal discipline or vanity project: what separates a World Cup that pays off from one that doesn't?

𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬. 𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡.

Nigeria's financial inclusion has expanded rapidly, more accounts, wider agent banking, growing digital finance. Yet only 16% of Nigerian adults were financially healthy in 2023, down from 28% in 2020.

Diamond Kanu, Inclusive Financial Solutions Lead at Innovision Consulting Africa, explores why access hasn't translated into resilience, drawing on two studies delivered with Impact Investors Foundation (IIF).

Is financial inclusion translating into financial health in your market, or are we still measuring the wrong outcomes?

In field research, collecting accurate data depends on more than asking the right questions. It depends on being understood.

AI voice assistants are increasingly being deployed in survey and interview settings, promising scale, speed, and cost efficiency. But when a farmer in Cox's Bazar couldn't understand a structured question repeated three times by an AI system, it took one human enumerator, a rephrased question, and local dialect to finally get a response.

Somiya Akter Nehat, Associate, Inclusive Financial Solutions Portfolio at Innovision Consulting, examines what this reveals about literacy gaps, rural access, and language contamination risks in AI-assisted field research, and why human judgment remains irreplaceable in the field.

We'd love to hear your thoughts: Have you seen AI tools succeed or struggle in field research settings? What made the difference?

Climate risk in Cox's Bazar is now a livelihoods risk. Irregular rainfall, flash floods, and rising salinity are already straining farming, fishing, and livestock income across the district.

To address this, Innovision Consulting is partnering with the আন্তর্জাতিক শ্রম সংস্থা - International Labour Organization (ILO), funded by Global Affairs Canada, to strengthen five agricultural value chains (poultry, fish, maize, and commercial and gourd vegetables) through ISEC Phase 2.

The project's Inception Workshop, held in Cox's Bazar on 24 June 2026, aligned government, development, and private-sector actors around one strategy: pair public capability with private-sector reach and build gender and disability inclusion into the design from the start.

ISEC will operate across 4 upazilas with support from the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE), the Department of Fisheries (DoF), the Department of Livestock Services (DLS), the Department of Social Services (DSS), BRAC, ACI Seed, Ispahani Agro Ltd., EON, and ACI Godrej.

Cox's Bazar is home to one of the world's largest refugee settlements, putting immense pressure on host communities. Farming households in the region face rising input costs, limited market access, and growing climate risks, making sustainable livelihoods harder to secure every year.

To address this, Innovision Consulting is partnering with the আন্তর্জাতিক শ্রম সংস্থা - International Labour Organization (ILO), funded by Global Affairs Canada, to strengthen agricultural market systems across five value chains (poultry, fish, maize, and commercial and gourd vegetables) through the ISEC Phase 2 project.

On 23–24 June, our team arranged a two-day Enumerator Training in Cox's Bazar to launch the project's baseline survey. The training prepared our field team on survey tools, ethical interviewing, and inclusion principles, ensuring the most vulnerable groups, including women, youth, and persons with disabilities, are counted from day one.

A big thank you to our facilitators Tamanna Mastura and Tas Rahman, and to Salim Uddin and Savera Kazi from the ILO for their guidance throughout.

👉 Follow our journey as we work to build climate-resilient livelihoods for farming communities in Cox's Bazar. Stay tuned for updates from the field!

Strong malaria responses depend on more than commodities. They depend on markets that work.

Last week, Innovision Consulting Africa attended the launch of the Malaria Market Analysis Field Implementation Tools and Policy Synthesis in Abuja, where stakeholders from government, development partners, the private sector, and research institutions came together to advance a coordinated, evidence-driven approach to malaria control in Nigeria.

Developed by the National Malaria Elimination Programme and Malaria Consortium, the Malaria Market Analysis applies a market systems lens to understand how demand, supply, regulation, financing, and coordination shape access to malaria commodities and services, moving beyond periodic studies to embed routine market intelligence into decision-making.

We commend NMEP, Malaria Consortium, and all partners driving evidence-based approaches to strengthen Nigeria's malaria response.

Innovision Consulting, in partnership with GFA Consulting Group GmbH, is designing and implementing the baseline study for the Nagorikata: Civic Engagement Fund (CEF), which covers 50 national CSOs working on human rights, women's empowerment, democratic governance, and the rule of law. The baseline is being rolled out in phases. Cohort 1 has already been completed, and Cohort 2, comprising CfP V & VI grantees, is now entering the baseline co-design process.

As part of this process, Innovision Consulting and GFA Consulting Group GmbH organised a co-design workshop with CfP V & VI grantees at Lakeshore Heights, Gulshan-1, Dhaka. The session brought together 24 participants, including 15 representatives from six grantees: Centre for Disability in Development, Breaking the Silence, Centre for Peace and Justice, JAAGO Foundation, Bangladesh Youth Leadership Center, and Rupantar, alongside five team members from Innovision and four from GFA Consulting.

Participants mapped baseline indicators against each grantee's project context, defined target groups and sampling frameworks for the quantitative community survey, and identified stakeholders for the qualitative study component.

By the close of the session, all six grantees had agreed on data collection methods, defined sample frameworks for both the community survey and OCA, and contributed project-specific definitions of Nagorikata's baseline indicators, establishing a strong methodological foundation for the consolidated baseline study.

This initiative is part of the Nagorikata: Civic Engagement Fund (CEF) Programme, implemented with technical support from GFA Consulting Group, and funded by Switzerland, Canada, and the European Union.

When Bangladesh's Monsoon Revolution reshaped the political landscape overnight, citizens' voices needed to be heard and counted. We put 10,696 people on record across all eight divisions and 64 districts — so that policymakers and political leaders had hard evidence to act on.

When COVID-19 hit and the poorest bore the heaviest cost, we were already on the phone. We documented how garment workers, rickshaw-pullers, and migrant labourers were losing their livelihoods in real time — turning invisible suffering into evidence that shaped the humanitarian response.

When economic growth failed to generate dividends for the poorest households, we built the bridge — demonstrating to governments, investors, and development partners across Asia and Africa that inclusive growth is both a moral imperative and sound economics.

That conviction has carried us to 22 countries, 500+ projects, and 1.5 million households.

But the number we care about most isn't on any project list. It's the people — researchers, advisors, implementers — who built careers through this work and are now leading inclusive-growth initiatives in institutions across the world.

If you're one of them — a partner who trusted us with a hard problem, a colleague who pushed our thinking, a community whose story we were privileged to tell — this anniversary is as much yours as ours.

What did we build together? What shifted because of the work? Tell us in the comments, or tag someone who was part of the journey.
