Description
The Climate & Health Thrive Fund seeks to address one of the most critical barriers to large-scale deployment of climate-health technologies: the commercialization “valley of death.” While impactful pilots of climate-health solutions have shown great promise, innovations in poor countries face systemic challenges, including insufficient capital, fragmented ecosystems, unproven markets, and policy gaps. These barriers prevent the full potential of climate-health solutions from being realized, particularly in emerging economies where the need for resilient public health systems is most pressing.
