Good to get Rural on the agenda.

💥We're looking forward to making a big impact at UKREiiF next week, leading region's pitch for investment on the national stage. If you're going - come and see us at our pavillion! 🤝A unified ‘Team Cambridgeshire and Peterborough’ approach will be at the heart of our first appearance at the UK's biggest trade and investment conference. 🗣️ And there's a packed schedule of panels and conversations including how to balance the growth of the Cambridge economy with the needs of the community, Levelling Up in action in Peterborough, the importance of agri-tech in future food security, and how to revitalise market towns. We want to glean insight and best practice from around the country in making our region better. 📢 Promoting the region to the Government, partner councils and investors nationally and globally to bring in trade and investment is a key part of the Combined Authority’s role in fostering sustainable growth and creating more opportunity for residents and local businesses. 👥 It's all part of the Combined Authority's partnership working with constituent authorities to develop a ‘one-voice’ approach for advocating and influencing on behalf of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough. 💬 Mayor Dr Nik Johnson said: “Our presence at UKREiiF is another sign of the Combined Authority’s continuing improvement – being more than the sum of the region’s parts to make the pitch nationally and globally for the investment our region needs to grow sustainably and ultimately improve everyone’s lives.” Read more! https://bit.ly/44I7yNI

🇽🇰 🇦🇹 A delegation from Kosovo's Ministry of Industry, Entrepreneurship, and Trade (MIET), led by H.E. Ms. Rozeta Hajdari, recently visited Vienna as part of the EnInGeP project. The project, funded by the Austrian Development Agency (ADA) and co-funded by MIET, focuses among others on establishing an Innovation Fund in Kosovo.   Joined by CARE Österreich and project partners ECIKS and CARE Kosovo, the delegation engaged in fruitful discussions with key Austrian institutions, including FFG Österreichische Forschungsf��rderungsgesellschaft mbH, AIT Austrian Institute of Technology, Austria Wirtschaftsservice (aws), Vienna BioCenter, and Wirtschaftsagentur Wien.   We extend thanks to all institutions involved, particularly FFG, for their expertise and support in organizing the visit and guiding the establishment of the Innovation Fund. This collaborative effort underscores the importance of international cooperation in fostering innovation and economic development. 🤝 More about the „Enabling Income Generation for the Poor (EnInGeP)“-project: https://lnkd.in/dMNNtFda #weCARE #Innovation #Cooperation

Development Finance Institutions (#DFIs) play a critical role in promoting sustainable development through their investments in private sector projects in low and middle-income countries. 💰 How can DFIs' funding models affect their ability to deliver positive impact? We compared the funding models of the 3️⃣ largest European bilateral DFIs: France’s Proparco, the Netherlands’ Financierings-Maatschappij voor Ontwikkelingslanden and the U.K.’s British International Investment. Our anlaysis indicates: ➡ There is no one-size-fits-all funding model for DFIs. Models should be tailored to best suit each institution's needs and realities. ➡ DFIs need to coordinate and fine-tune their funding models so that they complement each other and optimise the use of limited resources.
