We’ve been a part of the Catalytic Climate Finance Facility for a few months now, and the experience has been powerful so far. With the grant and acceleration support from the Facility, we will be able to iterate on our structure, financial model, and investor pitch, strengthen our gender strategy to be more transformative, and ultimately launch and raise private capital. The CC Facility team has been very directive, enabling us to be bold and wise in a way that we wouldn’t be able to do without the facility.
