One idea would be to start by looking at technological trends in your country. If they persist, what problems would lend themselves to easier solutions? Examples:

1. Smartphone penetration is increasing. This can help with improving access to education when there's a dearth of content in your local language on YouTube, Coursera, edX etc. You can build a platform for teachers to easily create videos / content in your local language and upload them on YouTube.

2. Mobile adoption is on the rise. This can help with infrastructure planning by collaborating with telecom providers and analyzing anonymized data. You can create a tool for planners / ministries to visualize and analyze these datasets.

3. A significant proportion of people use feature phones. You can create a news delivery service or something similar to bring to them what's easily available on the web and would be useful.
