At the invitation of NAIP partner, The Small and Medium Business Development Agency of the Republic of Azerbaijan (KOBİA), the National Agency of Investment and Privatization of the Republic of Belarus joined the Joint Declaration of Baku Climate Coalition for green transition of Small and Medium Entrepreneurship.
This document was officially initiated within the framework of the COP29. A number of foreign SME support agencies as well as other institutions, for example, the Asian Development Bank, supported it. The participants of the declaration emphasize the important role of small and medium businesses in transition to a green economy and express their commitment to developing various measures that help accelerate the green transition for small and medium businesses.
"We fully agree with the assessment of the role of SMEs in the transition to a green economy, which is postulated in the declaration. We do acknowledge the role of both raising awareness and creating levers, for example, the development of green financing system, green loans. Thanks to them, it is easier for SMEs to make decisions on implementing projects that not only bring profit, but also include the best environmental and social practices. NAIP is always ready to help investors in implementing such projects, that is, green investment projects, in our country," says NAIP Director Dzmitry Krasousky.
