大华银行旗下创新实验室 The FinLab推出绿色科技加速器(Greentech Accelerator)项目,为参加项目的企业提供总共高达 15万元资金。

上述项目面向全球绿色科技起步公司和中小企业,专注绿色科技解决方案包括能源效率、零废弃供应链,以及碳管理和申报。

这些企业须获得技术就绪指数(Technology Readiness Level, 简称TRL)的第六级以上,意味着公司技术已具功能齐全的原型或代表性模型。

项目从即日起开放申请,截至7月12日,第一轮将有10家公司获选参加。

The FinLab成立于2015 年,去年推出可持续发展创新计划(Sustainability Innovation Programme),绿色科技加速器作为计划的项目之一。

The FinLab主管龙仕运指出, 许多小企业担忧知识不足和资源有限。为了应付这项挑战,绿色科技加速器通过指导来自世界各地的创新绿色科技解决方案供应商,带来相关、可部署和先进的解决方案,以满足本地和海外中小企业和商家在环境、社会与治理(ESG)的需求。 

大华银行今年3月发布中小企业展望调查报告显示,许多中小企业有意推行可持续发展,但往往心有余而力不足。他们一些缺乏这方面的知识而无法推行适合公司情况的措施,有些则缺乏相关支援,例如可持续发展培训。
