How it works - Global Matchmaking Platform

How it works?

The Global Matchmaking Platform operates by strategically linking country-specific requests for support with the relevant technical and financial assistance offers. It is accessible to all emerging and developing economies.

Whether creating enabling environments through policy development or facilitating technology transfer and investments, the Platform provides tools, connections and guidance for accelerating deep industrial decarbonisation. Aiming to be the first stop for countries to signal their needs for industry decarbonisation, the Platform brings together globally leading partners to address these needs, stimulating synergies between public and private sector funds and instruments.

The power of collaboration

The Global Matchmaking Platform collaborates with the following stakeholder groups to harness the financial, technological and strategic resources needed to decarbonise high-emitting industrial sectors in emerging and developing economies.

Governments

The Global Matchmaking Platform engages with governments of emerging and developing economies that are ready to reshape industrial frameworks with strategies that ensure sustainability while fostering economic growth.

Governments of emerging and developing economies gain access to targeted support. This allows them to create an enabling policy and regulatory framework, access an array of financing options, explore innovation opportunities and ensure effective project implementation.

Delivery Partners

The Global Matchmaking Platform connects delivery partners, institutions that provide technical assistance for industry decarbonisation, with pre-articulated country asks that align with partner areas of expertise, mandates and priorities, through a streamlined matchmaking process.

Technical delivery partners that specialise in implementing decarbonisation projects get access to pre-defined asks from governments, ensuring higher impact, delivering tangible results in advancing climate action and low-emission industrial development.

Donors

The Global Matchmaking Platform bridges the gap between ambition and action by matching high-impact country projects with the most suitable delivery partner(s), reducing duplication and leveraging cross-cutting expertise to maximize the effectiveness of investments in global decarbonisation.

Donors identify solid pipelines of projects with reduced risks and reduced development time. Projects are additionality ensured and duplication is avoided, impact is maximised, and development of programmatic approaches are supported.

Private sector

By connecting investors and technology providers with emerging and developing markets, the Platform mobilises private capital and facilitates the transfer of cutting-edge solutions to drive deep industrial decarbonisation.

The Platform provides access to opportunities for investing in and deploying ind decarbonisation technologies, fosters collaborations that drive advancements in decarbonisation, and contributes to global efforts through technology transfer and sustainable practices.

The matchmaking process

The Global Matchmaking Platform process is a structured approach that ensures efficient and effective identification of the most suitable partners to respond to a country's request. This ensures that each country receives the most suitable and impactful support to accelerate industrial decarbonisation.
