The Global Challenges Research Fund is a £1.5 billion UK government fund that supports cutting-edge research and innovation that addresses problems faced by developing countries.
It aims to encourage UK businesses to work with overseas partners to develop new innovations that could help to transform lives in countries that receive overseas development assistance.
Disadvantaged people in poorer economies can benefit from new and innovative products and services and from the markets and jobs created by them. UK businesses develop and test new products overseas and find new research partners and markets.
Funding comes from the UK's Official Development Assistance and must meet its guidelines.
