Sustainable Business Funding in France: Grants and Loans 💵 We have prepared a list of grants available in France that support small and medium businesses on their green journey. 🌳 ADEME Grants The French Agency for Ecological Transition (ADEME) is an organization that supports environmental transition and is owned by the French government.  ADEME has numerous initiatives, including the “Circular Economy and Waste” program. This program might be interesting to used device businesses as it aims to optimize resources and limit waste. It also supports various companies, including small local ones, on their green journey. 🌳 NRRP Grants The French Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is a major strategy developed in 2020 to address issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The plan distributes the budget into 73 streams, with a total funding of €40.3 billion. Used device businesses might benefit from the “Digital transition” initiative. It supports small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in implementing digital technologies. €8.7 billion, or 21.6% of the plan, will be spent on this initiative. 🌳 ERDF Grants The European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) is an international organization supporting SMEs in transitioning to a greener, more inclusive, and more efficient future.  The conditions of programs depend on the region. For example, in Île-de-France, ERDF invests €92 million in digitalization and SME development and €85 million in ecological transition and support for the circular economy. 🌳 France Num Grants  France Num helps SMEs, and very small enterprises (VSEs) digitalize. Regarding financial support, France Num provides subsidies that can be spent on purchasing innovative digital equipment. Grant requirements include co-financing from the company: France Num finances 50% of the purchase. Additionally, the project should last at least two years. 🌳 JTF Grants  The Just Transition Fund (JTF) was created by the European Union to help businesses transition to a climate-neutral economy. It provides help in various regions across Europe that depend most on fossil fuels.  JTF assists companies financially in achieving carbon neutrality. Several types of funding are available, such as non-repayable grants and co-financing. The program’s overall budget is €19.2 billion for 2021-2027.

It is with pride (and great excitement🔥) that I would like to share that a PACCT for sustainability white paper describing the opportunities that Product-as-a-Service (#PaaS) models bring to sustainable business development, which I am pleased to co-author, was published yesterday. The white paper describes: 👉 key aspects of building or transforming a manufacturing business within the #PaaS model 👉 opportunities that PaaS offer in the context of building a sustainable economy and developing a resilient businesses contributing to the transition to a circular economy 👉 EU regulations in which PaaS is emerging - Green Deal, Taxonomy and #ESG reporting in line with #ESRS standards 👉 challenges and solutions for financing and leveraging data and digitization in scaling PaaS, 👉 business cases from the world of successfully operating companies in the PaaS space. And finally, 👉 the expert opinions and recommendations we make to regulators, institutions and business to immediately pave the way for transformation towards servitization and circular economy models, whereby business development can take place away from the exaggerated use of natural resources, minimizing energy consumption and monetizing usership and services rather than ownership. The white paper was the culmination of several months of work by a team led by Francois Johnston as spokesperson of PACCT, in collaboration with Gurvan Guennec, Heloise Aboulker and myself, as well as incredibly experienced experts from the Scientific Advisory Board of PACCT. It has been an extraordinary experience to work on the report and conduct the research. I am extremely grateful and would like to sincerely thank: - Francois Johnston for inviting me to join the PACCT for sustainability team and sharing his knowledge on the subject, - Iain McKechnie, who gave me almost mentoring support at the beginning of this journey and connected me with Francois, - the experts Ann-Charlotte Mellquist and Dimitris Karamitsos, who shared their knowledge and experience in preparing financial issues regarding #PaaS - to PaaS experts and practitioners Tomas Zimmermann, Taco de Boer, Samuel Allison, Slawomir Huss, Joel Rolfe who donated their time and shared their practice of financing the PaaS models and the challenges and solutions involved. I feel privileged to have worked with you on this report and to be part of the PACCT for sustainability community, which is actively working to transform the economy towards #circularity and to support business on the road to servitization. The link to download the white paper is in the post below.

Investment Idea: Water - The Essential ESG Investment for Sustainable Returns Water is the essence of life - It fuels our bodies, nourishes our ecosystems, and powers our industries. While the Earth is covered in water, only about 3% is freshwater, which is crucial for drinking, agriculture, and sustaining ecosystems. Out of that 3%, the majority is trapped in glaciers or underground, leaving less than 1% readily accessible for human use.   As the global population grows and billions of people aspire to higher living standards, their water use expands - from more frequent showers and water-intensive diets to increased energy consumption, which relies heavily on water for cooling and production. Around 70% of freshwater withdrawals comes from agricultural production, which is set to increase significantly as more people need to be fed.   On the supply side, the availability of water is becoming more unpredictable and uneven due to climate change and shifting weather patterns, while demographic shifts and migration patterns are increasingly moving populations away from major water sources, exacerbating water scarcity in certain regions. According to the UN, global freshwater demand is predicted to exceed supply by 40% by 2030.   Already 2.2 billion people lack access to safe drinking water, while 4.2 billion people face water scarcity for at least one month each year. The fact that 80% of wastewater flows back into the ecosystem without being treated or reused highlights the urgent need to act and illustrates the significant business opportunity for companies operating in this sector.   The funding gaps for water infrastructure are estimated to require investments ranging from $6.7 trillion by 2030 to $22.6 trillion by 2050. The global water and wastewater treatment market is expected to grow at a robust CAGR of 6.5% between 2024 and 2034. The proposed product allows investors to gain exposure to global leaders in the water and wastewater treatment industry while having their capital protected at 90%.   If you wish to gain access to the full presentation of the idea, do not hesitate to contact our team.

🌍 As Europe faces the dual challenges of climate change and shifting geopolitical dynamics, the need for a unified response has never been clearer. Tackling climate change is not just an environmental issue—it’s central to Europe’s security, strategic autonomy, and long-term stability. A key element of this response is the #EuropeanGreenDeal, which aims to transition the continent to a carbon-neutral economy. In an op-ed for Le Monde, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, former NATO Secretary General, stressed the importance of this commitment, warning that reversing the Green Deal’s goals would be a “geopolitical mistake.” By embracing a carbon-neutral economy, Europe can reduce energy dependence, foster innovation, and secure its leadership in clean technologies. The Green Deal offers a path to greater resilience and independence, turning climate challenges into opportunities for growth and strategic autonomy.

🔵⚪🔴 What do you know about French Development Cooperation (DC)?🔵⚪🔴 At Mainlevel, our efforts focus on understanding DC at a holistic level, from the funding strategies of different donors to the core needs of project beneficiaries. Recently, our colleagues took a deep dive into #FrenchDC, looking at similarities and differences with #GermanDC. Here are some of the key findings: 1️⃣ Strategic priorities: France’s development policy - orchestrated by the Interministerial Committee for International Cooperation and Development (CICID) - targets key areas such as #climateaction, #globalhealth, and #genderequality. The country's commitment is reflected in the 2021 Development Law, which focuses on impactful initiatives particularly within African regions. 2️⃣ Funding and allocation: As one of the world's leading donors, France aims to contribute 0.7% of GNI to Official Development Assistance (ODA) by 2030, prioritizing bilateral aid to promote development and stability in low-income countries, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. 3️⃣ Franco-German collaboration: Franco-German DC is characterized by a mix of cooperation and distinct national approaches. Germany's development agencies, such as #KfW and #GIZ, focus on project implementation, while France's centralized model involves strategic planning and implementation oversight by bodies such as the Agence Francaise de Développement. 🔍 Recent Franco-German milestones: The Treaty of Aachen in 2019 has reinvigorated Franco-German cooperation, particularly in development cooperation within Europe and beyond. Notable initiatives by the European Union include: Alliance Sahel, Euroclima+ or, more recently, the Just Energy Transition Partnership. 🌐 These facts tell us that by leveraging the skills of Mainlevel's multilingual team,🌟20% of whom are French speakers🌟, we are uniquely positioned to engage and contribute to these important international efforts. As we see these dynamic collaborations unfold, it reinforces the potential of strategic partnerships in addressing global challenges. #DevelopmentCooperation #SustainableDevelopment #GlobalHealth #ClimateAction #GenderEquality #ODA #FrancoGermanRelations #MultilingualTeam #French

Stéphane Séjourné, 🇪🇺 EC Executive VP for Prosperity and Industrial Strategy, Outlines Key Priorities in Les Echos Interview 👉 Main takeaways: 🔹 Securing Europe’s Industrial Competitiveness Europe must reassure investors and industries of its readiness to lead in a challenging geopolitical and economic context. Building on the Letta and Draghi Reports, key actions include: -Continue investing in the green transition -Simplifying regulations to reduce administrative burdens. -Tackling rising energy costs to enhance competitiveness. 🔹 A Future Pact on Clean Industry -Simplifying access to permits and EU funding -Co-financing the decarbonization of industrial sites -Reskilling workers -Using carbon-free public procurement to boost demand for sustainable products like green steel. 🔹 Automotive Sector -Expanding EV infrastructure, such as charging stations, and standardizing batteries. -Developing a second-hand EV market to make electric mobility more accessible. -Encouraging corporate fleets, which account for over 50% of new car purchases, to transition to EVs. -Using public procurement to drive the adoption of electric vehicles in public fleets. -Decisions on penalties will be deferred until the state of the industry is fully assessed, ensuring that manufacturers are supported rather than penalised during the transition. 🔹 Energy -Modernizing outdated infrastructure and improving interconnections across Member States. -Specializing energy production regionally, with photovoltaics in the South, wind power in the North, and nuclear energy where possible. -Reforming electricity markets to allow long-term contracts with suppliers, stabilizing costs. 🔹 Telecoms -Europe’s telecom market is fragmented, with 140 operators across 27 separate markets, limiting efficiency and hindering investment in networks. -According to the Draghi Report, consolidating the market to 20-30 stronger operators is essential to drive innovation, attract investment, and improve services for consumers. -The EC will focus on creating the conditions necessary for this consolidation, ensuring a more competitive, scalable, and investment-ready telecom sector. 🔹 Omnibus Legislation -The "omnibus" package aims to update outdated legislative texts while maintaining their objectives, addressing unnecessary complexity in current regulations. -Overlapping transition plans have created excessive bureaucracy, making it essential to rationalize requirements placed on companies. -Future legislation will adopt cumulative impact studies, evaluating all constraints on a sector comprehensively, rather than a piecemeal, text-by-text approach. -This initiative is designed to reduce regulatory burdens and send a clear signal to industry that their concerns about complexity are being addressed.
