7 Design Process Gaps Needs Solutions Identify gaps through stakeholder engagement Identify needs to address the gaps Design solutions/activities to meet those needs

8 Major gaps in five core areas Gaps along the value chain technology, company, finance, market, and policy

9 Example gaps preventing climate innovation in India Technology Supporting local and adapted technology innovation Gaps Needs R&D conducted in isolation without market inputs Reduce fragmentation and lack of knowledge of R&D opportunities Many technologies stuck in labs and never see the Standardize contractual agreements and commercial terms market with industry Company Building workforce capacity and a pipeline of sustainable enterprises Gaps Needs Lack of end-to-end support Contracts between service providers and service users can be standardized Financing paired with credible services providers to ensure symbiotic use of funding and advisory services Finance Ensuring access to flexible risk capital Gaps Needs Lack of Valley-of-Death financing Bridge valley of death funding gaps with earlier stage financing options Fragmentation of existing financing sources in market Reduce fragmentation and lack of knowledge of funding options available Lack of debt finance from banks Standardize contractual agreements and commercial terms with banks Markets Creating new and expanding existing local and global markets Gaps Needs Technology entrepreneurs and innovators often lack Research and tracking of market demands and trends market information to create viable business Identify market needs, and match them to available technologies Policy Informing, linking and transforming innovative policy mechanisms Gaps Needs Lack of policies to create viable clean technologies Provide market and technology inputs from industry and experts markets in the SME sectors to policy makers Work with policy makers and government to raise awareness
