Key Characteristics of a P4G Partnership

Relevance: Promotes market-based solutions to one or more of our five SDG sector areas, and our eight eligible partner countries.

Innovation and Growth: New models for change that advance green economic growth with commercially viable and replicable business models.

Impact and Additionality: Addresses barriers to commercially viable solutions to the SDGs and is additive to what is already happening in the business and international development arenas.

Implementation: Has the capacity to succeed.

Value-Add: Brings together innovative constellations of private sector, public sector, and government organizations tackling global challenges through market-driven approaches.

Market-Based: The business case, or the commercial potential, is the foundation for achieving the partnership’s development objective and fostering sustainable change.

Definition: Additional

Partnerships proposing work that is “additional” to what is already happening or

what would naturally happen in the marketplace.

• For example, P4G funding should be “additional” to commercial business

development (i.e. expansion of a core business offering), as well as being

“additional” to international development (i.e. programming that bilateral and

multilateral funders typically cover). P4G does not support partnerships primarily

focused on either of those activities.

9

Types of Market-Based Partnerships

10

• Market-driven partnerships are driven by the business case. These are partnerships where commercial and non-commercial actors co-create, finance and implement new business models, technologies or products that contribute to sustainable development.

• Market-generating partnerships are not driven by immediate commercial prospects, but rather by a broader ambition and long-term commercial interest in transforming the market conditions and ultimately generating a market for more sustainable solutions. This type of partnerships aims to address system failures in the market and governance gaps, or to push innovative industry standards that can support the creation of viable markets for sustainable solutions.

Definition: P4G Value Add

P4G’s acceleration model adds value by helping the most promising P4G

partnerships pitch their projects to investors, learn about industry best

practices, network with business and government leaders, lay the

groundwork for replication and scaling of partnership activities, and

engage with our partner organizations, national platforms, and other

partnerships.
