The ICCF 2014 will bring together practitioners, project developers, investors, banks, researchers, social enterprises, government and donor agencies, as well as foundations and NGOs to discuss the next steps to tackle the challenges hindering the large-scale adoption of improved cookstoves (ICS) in India.
Structure
Practitioner Workshop – 10 November 2014
In-depth technical discussions will focus on increasing the demand and improving the supply of improved cookstoves. GIZ and its partners will engage with participants on key issues pertaining to marketing, distribution networks, financing, gender and product design.
All stakeholders relevant to the cookstove sector will come together to find ways to transform the market for clean cooking and make clean cooking technologies available in all Indian households. Eminent personalities of the Indian Industry, business, banks, the government and the cookstove sector will debate the roadmap towards large-scale adoption of improved cookstoves. The focus will be on the role that the Indian industry can play, the lessons that can be learned from successful marketing campaigns for products related to cooking and health, as well as the supportive policy ecosystem that the Indian government is establishing.
Business Model Workshop – 12 November 2014
During this workshop, early stage entrepreneurs will be supported in analyzing and improving their business models in order to make them more viable and attractive for investors.
