The Centre provides a robust platform supporting growth of strong entrepreneurial ecosystem in India focussed on offering environmental and economic co-benefits. By supporting startups and MSMEs working on clean technologies, low-carbon innovations, and environmentally responsible business models, the Centre’s initiatives are aligned with broader national and global climate goals. The Centre seeks to empower these green entrepreneurs through various capacity building programs and enabling access to financing mechanisms, government incentives, and private schemes aiming for a faster transformation of business ideas to successful ventures impacting social and economic development, supporting employment generation and wealth creation.
The Centre also invites entrepreneurs who aim to address environmental challenges—such as climate change, pollution, waste, and resource depletion—through innovative, market-based environmentally sustainable, economically viable, and socially responsible solutions to share their services, products and solutions with businesses that could integrate these solutions into their operations. Our startup showcases are organised periodically to spotlight innovative green solutions and connect eco-entrepreneurs with industry stakeholders.
