Knowledge Sharing Event Report - DGGF Financing local SMEs

In light of its ten year anniversary, Triple Jump and PwC, on behalf of the Dutch Good Growth Fund (DGGF), hosted a knowledge sharing event titled “Implementing Scale: SME Finance in Emerging Markets.” The event provided a platform to reflect on the past ten years of transforming the SME finance sector and to focus on developing effective strategies and collaborations for scaling.

Since its launch in 2014, DGGF has partnered with numerous organizations to co-create pioneering approaches for financing the “missing middle”. A total of 160 diverse stakeholders, including DGGF’s investees, co-investors, partners, and policymakers from 35 countries, gathered for a day full of inspirational keynotes, insightful panel discussions and interactive workshops.

The objective of this knowledge product is to share the outcomes and key takeaways from these exchanges, enabling the DGGF community to expand beyond its boundaries and attract like-minded stakeholders to scale SME finance in emerging markets.
