#15 How PIDG is Scaling Up in 2024
The future of development finance is bright, as a number of exciting announcements were made at the COP28 climate conference last year. From a £391 million investment in PIDG, to the announcement of a new credit enhancement facility in Kenya, 2024 will be a year of positive change. PIDG’s strategy for the coming decade is ambitious, but despite a challenging 2023 it has been successful in placing climate and gender front and centre of its investment decisions.
In this episode we explore how the COP28 announcements will help PIDG scale up its solutions and deliver on its commitments throughout 2024. We learn more about the UK Government’s investment in PIDG and how it will advance its goals in sustainable infrastructure and climate resilience initiatives. And we discuss the topics of collaboration, domestic capital mobilisation, and the global megatrends that are shaping the investment landscape.
Tune in for a conversation with Philippe Valahu, CEO of PIDG
Your host is Marcel Klebba, communications manager at PIDG.
