Webinar: Funding Green Projects Through Carbon Finance

“Africa has a cohort of businesses well placed to take advantage of alternative and cheaper forms of funding to invest in alternative clean energy projects to scale and grow their businesses. Many emerging pre-revenue SMMEs struggle to access funding to grow and export their products to global markets. Many larger corporates utilise debt to fund projects to mitigate load shedding by investing in clean energy production to reduce carbon tax liabilities or achieve Net Zero.” Your membership level does not allow you access to this content.
