We are pleased to announce that the tender for a partner to produce a short research report exploring how public sector climate finance can be used most effectively to leverage private sector investment in innovation is now live!

The Invitation to Tender document can be found by clicking this LINK

The FT Hub has a growing portfolio of early stage climate technology innovations that intend to access climate finance as a route to sustain investment.

Whilst key insights into technology application are being surfaced by the FT Hub, we also want to better understand how grant funding can be more catalytic for early-stage innovators. In other words, how can public sector funding most effectively be deployed to attract climate finance investment?

FT Hub is looking to commission a short report to explore how public sector climate finance can be used most effectively to leverage private sector investment in innovation, specifically in reforestation initiatives in low-income country settings.

The primary aim is to better understand the role of public sector climate financing as a tool to scale up private sector investment in early-stage innovation and to explore how climate financing agencies can better support early-stage innovators for success into the future.

For those interested in applying, please note the deadline to submit proposals is 23:59 GMT, 12 December 2022. We look forward to receiving your submission!
