    Entrepreneurial Finance for Green Innovative SMEs conference Thursday 20 June 2019 Page !1 of !18 Page !2 of !18 https://www.pexels.com/photo/agriculture-alternative-energy-clouds-countryside-414837/ Introduction Environmental issues first surfaced in 1972, at the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm. The recent COP24 Katowice Climate Change conference highlighted the increasingly urgent need to operationalise the Paris 2015 agreement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to ensure that climate change does not peak beyond 2C above preindustrial levels (to avoid the level beyond which catastrophic change may occur). Mitigation steps are many and varied and include national and transnational programmes (e.g. World Bank and European Union) to fund new innovative green industry circular economy solutions and encourage private sector investment to achieve a socio-environmental just transition. Whilst considerable focus has been on government programmes to fund larger scale projects (e.g. renewable energy and infrastructure), such as through public backed Green Investment Banks, alongside policies to encourage businesses energy efficiency, far less attention has been given to addressing the green innovation patient capital gap facing early stage small businesses. Since there are strong arguments that small businesses play a significant role in disruptive technological innovation, addressing their financing needs is arguably crucial to support the Paris agreement. Furthermore governments need to support innovation at lower technology readiness (TRL) levels, which may be far from commercial readiness and encourage traditional and new sources of entrepreneurial finance into this space. Ultimately, this can provide the best opportunity for optimal technological solutions to addressing climate change.
