The Bono East Development Foundation is a regional development organization based in Techiman, the capital of the Bono East Region, focused on promoting economic growth, infrastructure development, and investment opportunities. The foundation serves as a catalyst for commercial ventures and public-private partnerships aimed at advancing the socio-economic development of Techiman and the broader Bono East Region.

The Bono East Region was carved out of the former Brong-Ahafo Region in 2019 as part of Ghana's regional reorganization, making it one of the country's newest regions with Techiman as its capital. Techiman has historically been a major commercial hub due to its strategic location and famous market, which is one of West Africa's largest. Development foundations like this emerged to harness the region's economic potential and coordinate growth initiatives in the post-reorganization era.
The foundation is located in Techiman, which is accessible via road from Kumasi (approximately 120 kilometers) and Accra (about 370 kilometers). Visitors interested in partnership opportunities or learning about regional development initiatives should contact the foundation directly for appointments. Techiman is well-connected by public transport and private vehicles, making it easily accessible for business visits.
Techiman, where the foundation is based, hosts one of the largest agricultural markets in West Africa, with the famous Techiman Market attracting traders from across Ghana, Burkina Faso, Togo, and Côte d'Ivoire, making it a natural hub for regional economic development initiatives.
