The Persistent Africa Climate Venture Builder Fund (ACV) is a $70 million blended finance structure that invests in early-stage climate impact ventures that address climate change mitigation and transition. The fund invests in African businesses that help communities and ecosystems adapt to the impact of climate change, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, build resilience against future risks, create jobs, improve lives, and achieve gender impact. The fund also strengthens Africa’s early-stage investment ecosystem to drive private sector involvement in building a climate-positive future in Africa.
