With the recent conversations in Paris around the Climate Change Agreement and the adoption of the new Sustainable Development goals (read about SEED’s SME discussion at COP21 Paris here), the importance of harnessing the power of entrepreneurship to address the environmental challenges facing us today has never been greater. SMEs will play a vital role in the development of the clean tech industry, and on April 22^nd at the Lalit Hotel in Mumbai, SEED will host a full day of discussions surrounding how to encourage investment in this key area.

Taking place during the same week as the annual Sankalp social enterprise event, the Forum will be an opportunity for those interested in the environmental side of the of the SME space to both network with their colleagues as well as take a deep dive into some of the key issues facing this critical space. Bringing together investors, entrepreneurs, intermediaries and policy makers, the event will look to identify key areas of consensus and critical pathways to action in order to make it easier for green enterprises to launch and thrive in the Indian economy.

The afternoon will include presentations from former SEED Low Carbon Award Winners Frontier Markets: Last Mile Distribution for Solar, Last Forest Enterprises, ONergy Solar, Pollinate Energy and Tambul Leaf Plates.
