Invest2Scale | ESTABLISHING THE INVESTMENT NETWORK FOR STARTUPS AND ENTREPRENEURS FOCUSED ON GREEN AND SUSTAINABLE TECHNOLOGIES

Invest2Scale project aims to increase the cross-border investment in Turkish, Greek and Romanian innovation ecosystems, while improving access to capital skills of startups working on green and sustainable technologies and established in those ecosystems. Through the network of investors that project partners have, Invest2Scale project will provide the cross-border investment opportunities to startups working on green and sustainable technologies and located in Turkey, Greece and Romania. Access to finance helps startups to use their limited financial resources on innovation at a higher level, without generating a significant income, especially while working on innovation activities. The innovative activities lead to better results in terms of sales numbers, and the overall growth rate of the startups.

Invest2Scale project will support competitiveness, and global potential of green and sustainable technology-focused startups in Turkish, Greek and Romanian innovation ecosystems through foreign investments and improve the investment readiness of startups. To assist foreign investors located in the Netherlands, France and Denmark to access local deal flows, Invest2Scale project will use the local project partners and establish information centers in Turkey, Greece and Romania. Through the knowledge of partners in local ecosystems, these information centers will help foreign investors to access local deal flows.

In terms of informing foreign investors from the Netherlands, France and Denmark on local regulatory frameworks and supporting them to establish joint cross-border ventures in Turkey, Greece and Romania, four brokerage events will be organized. These events will be focused on investors and a joint cross-border venture opportunity will be looked for.
