Venue: Microsoft Teams

In case you missed our first webinar, join us for the second webinar introducing the GSMA Innovation Fund for Green Transition for Mobile on Wednesday, 18 March. The Fund supports small and growing enterprises using mobile and digital technologies to expand clean energy access, scale circular business models for mobile devices, and reduce e-waste. The Fund is open to applicants in low and middle-income countries in Africa, Central and South America, and South and Southeast Asia. Successful organisations will be supported with grant funding of £100,000 to £200,000; alongside a broader package of support that includes: participation in bootcamps (a programme of learning exchange with grantees and alumni), technical assistance, connections with investors and other ecosystem stakeholders, and the opportunity to increase visibility through GSMA publications and events. 

In this session we will cover a full overview of the Fund, our eligibility criteria, and what we look for in strong pitches. You’ll also learn directly from an Innovation Fund grantee about their experience working with the GSMA Innovation Fund and how the support is shaping their path to scale. Have your questions ready for our live Q&A to help you prepare a compelling application ahead of the 6 April 2026 deadline.
