Low Carbon Business Action and Circular Economy is a doing business platform to accelerate the presence of European SMEs and small-mid caps on low carbon and circular economy related technologies in Canada.
The Program aims to promote the Paris Agreement on Climate Change goals, using a business opportunity driven approach. This Project has a three-track approach to accelerate the matchmaking and closure of business deals between Canadian Buyers and EU SME suppliers:
• Sector mapping and pre-screening – of business landscape targeting GHG emissions sectors in Canada, and mapping the business opportunities between potential “Canadian Buyers” of EU green technologies.
• Matchmaking – through a Challenge Pitch, designed to showcase several technology and business options from EU SME providers to Canadian demand companies. The shortlist of best-suited EU SMEs rests with the local Canadian Buyer, in line with a demand-side approach.
• Finalized Joint Business Concepts (JBCs) – with provision of technical assistance to commercially viable and bankable proposals resulting in finalized JBCs between EU SMEs and Canadian Buyers.
