Description:
I hope this message finds you well. I would like to draw your attention to an important funding opportunity from Convergence, the Asia Climate Solutions (ACS) Design Grant.
About the ACS Opportunity
-
The ACS program provides catalytic grants to support the design, structuring, and launch of innovative blended finance vehicles focused on climate mitigation and adaptation across Asia.
-
There are two grant streams depending on the maturity of the proposed solution:
-
Feasibility Study Grants, up to USD 200,000, suitable for early-stage ideas to support market scoping, stakeholder engagement, impact and investment thesis development, and structuring.
-
Proof-of-Concept Grants, up to USD 300,000, for more advanced proposals that are close to launching a blended finance vehicle, including set-up of governance structures, investor engagement, pipeline building, and impact framework design.
-
The ACS grant aims to mobilize private capital at scale, helping to bridge financing gaps for climate-related projects and enabling sustainable, high-impact climate investments in the Asia-Pacific region.
