Entrepreneurs play an important role in developing climate technologies and face challenges in
undertaking successful innovation in this field in all countries, often exacerbated in developing
countries, including:
a. Limited opportunity to engage in entrepreneurship;
b. Lack of enabling environments to innovate solutions for addressing climate change;
c. Limited support for undertaking climate innovation activities.
2. Climate technology incubators and accelerators provide broad-ranging support to
entrepreneurs, helping them to develop business know-how, market connections and technical
capacity, and providing guidance on sources and procedures for access to finance.
