Do venture capitalists, headliners of today’s financial news, really play the leading role in financing green start-ups? Why is every source of capital not equally welcomed by entrepreneurs? What are the advantages of EU funds applied to eco-innovative investments? What makes the difference between green and traditional investments? Does location matter? What is psychic income?

The authors of the Green Project Funding E-book provide readers with sound and multidimensional answers to these and other questions, painting a clear picture of today's complex financial market for eco-innovative projects.

The book is a must-read for everyone interested in eco-innovations.

 

Czy fundusze typu venture, które okupują nagłówki informacji biznesowych, grają pierwsze skrzypce w finansowaniu zielonych przedsięwzięć w fazie start-up? Dlaczego nie każde źródło kapitału jest jednakowo dobrze postrzegane przez przedsiębiorców? Jakie są korzyści związane z finansowaniem eko-projektów ze środków europejskich? Z czego wynikają różnice między inwestycjami tradycyjnymi a ekoinnowacyjnymi? Czy lokalizacja ma znaczenie? Czym jest dochód psychiczny?

Autorzy ebooka Green Project Funding udzielają wielowątkowych i pogłębionych odpowiedzi na te ( i inne) pytania, z pasją kreśląc obraz złożonego współczesnego rynku finansowego dla zielonych projektów. Lektura obowiązkowa dla wszystkich zainteresowanych ekoinnowacjami.
