As we face increasingly urgent challenges like climate change, natural resource depletion, ecosystem degradation, and poverty, the private sector is emerging as a key player to address these challenges. New Ventures China (NVC), a World Resources Institute (WRI) project, nurtures and grows small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that promote social and environmental benefits. By engaging companies that operate in energy conservation, emission reduction, and low-carbon economy development, NVC works to promote a sustainable development in China.
 
In the past five years, more than 300 SMEs have participated in NVC’s capacity building workshops and have taken advantage of our investor matchmaking opportunities. To date, we have selected 40 enterprises      
for the NVC portfolio and have helped more than 15 enterprises leverage over USD 100 million in investment.
