Welcome!
The Eastern Caribbean Green Entrepreneurship Initiative aims to foster the development of green entrepreneurs and businesses in the Eastern Caribbean. We, Global Green Growth Institute – Caribbean, believe that green entrepreneurs believe that green entrepreneurs are uniquely positioned as drivers of innovation, holding the keys to unlocking a transition to a green and sustainable future for our planet.
The initiative will prioritize women entrepreneurs and green job creation for women and youth. It also provides an opportunity to be selected to meet and dialogue with Qatari businesses in the green sector and the further development of our Entrepreneurship Ecosystem in the region.
What are GREEN ENTREPRENEURS or “GREEN BUSINESSES?
These are Individuals or businesses that are purpose-driven in addressing social and/or environmental issues through their products or services that they deliver while building sustainable wealth.”
