The Tanzania Early-Stage Climate Adaptation Venture Landscape Report, conducted by FSD Africa and EIT Climate-KIC, offers a comprehensive analysis of the financing ecosystem for climate adaptation initiatives in Tanzania. The report highlights the nascent but growing startup ecosystem, underscoring the challenges faced by early-stage ventures, such as limited access to tailored financing options and a lack of investment readiness. It also identifies agriculture and energy as the dominant sectors, with innovative startups addressing climate challenges through AI, digital marketplaces, and sustainable technologies. However, bureaucratic inefficiencies and stringent financial regulations remain key barriers to scaling these ventures.
To foster a thriving ecosystem, the report outlines strategic interventions, including the expansion of incubators, enhanced investment readiness programmes, and the promotion of flexible debt financing solutions. It emphasises the importance of fostering stronger linkages between businesses, investors, and accelerators, while advocating for policy reforms to create a more conducive environment for climate adaptation initiatives. This roadmap aims to build a robust pipeline of investable businesses and attract diverse funding sources to scale impactful solutions for climate resilience in Tanzania.
