In this study the prospect of rural business opportunities in developing countries more specifically in the target country, Bangladesh, has been investigated from the viewpoint of wirelessly networked Rural Communication Point (RCP) approach. It is proposed that if only one RCP is set up in every village and there is one Regional Access Point (RAP) responsible for several wirelessly networked RCPs, it is recommended that a significant development is possible in rural areas of the target country with the assistance from existing ICT infrastructure. In this study, the target country is chosen as Bangladesh in South Asia but the similar ICT model can be implemented with success in other countries in the developing world.
