The Transformative Actions Program (TAP) is a global initiative to support local and regional governments transform their net-zero and resilient development infrastructure concepts into mature, robust and bankable projects ready for financing and implementation. The TAP increases the visibility of local governments’ sustainable urban infrastructure projects, connects them to potential investors and project preparation facilities, as well as supports their project preparation through custom-made feedback, tools and services. With the next call opening in March 2024, this webinar will focus on explaining the application and evaluation processes to Urban Transitions Mission (UTM) Cities and cities part of the European Cities Mission.
Furthermore, the info session will outline the roadmap towards the potential participation in the UTMC Marketplace, to be held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, in June 2024. The Marketplace is an opportunity for advanced TAP projects to receive feedback from investors, technical assistance providers and international finance institutions, with a view to strengthen the proposal towards successful access to finance.
Participants will also have the opportunity to learn what are the key elements of a successful TAP application.
Date and Time
The event will take place online, on the 5th of March.
To accommodate all time zones, the webinar will be offered in two slots with the same content (10 hours and 16 hours CET).
