Description
Initiative that promotes a sustainable socio-bioeconomy in the Amazon by accelerating enterprises in sustainable value chains that are Indigenous-led, climate-smart or run in partnership with local communities. It combines technical assistance and business development support, financial capital (grants, recoverable grants and loans through investment funds), linkages to markets and investors, and a gender approach.
Observations
Budget: USD 6 million in seed-stage financing planned by NESsT through 2025 for bioeconomy initiatives in the Amazon; this is an investment commitment and not the initiative's total budget. The Regional Indigenous Incubator (2023-2025) mobilized USD 738,000. No additional consolidated public budget information available.
