CPI is the Secretariat for the ClimateShot Investor Coalition (CLIC), an action-oriented group for leaders in the impact investment community working in agriculture and food systems. This member-driven coalition aims to collectively scale-up and accelerate finance for agriculture and food systems globally, with the ultimate goal of shifting them to a low-carbon and climate-resilient pathway by 2030.

To achieve this goal, CLIC is focused on three key outcomes:

1. Greater consensus on the priorities for climate and nature finance
2. Greater application of science and innovation in impact investment decision-making
3. Increased finance mobilized for the sector globally

The Connector

The CLIC Agrifood Investment Connector (the Connector) develops a high-quality pipeline of climate and nature-positive agrifood businesses in developing countries. The Connector identifies suitable SMEs and works with them to assess their climate and nature risks and impacts in preparation for investor pitching and due diligence. In parallel, the Connector identifies pools of interested investors and builds a solid understanding of their requirements to facilitate meaningful connections with SMEs.
