The Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved capital management reforms that will unlock USD 100 billion in new funding over the next decade. This additional funding will be used to tackle overlapping crises, manage climate change, and address gender inequality in the Asia and Pacific region.

BoomGrow's innovative farming solutions have been recognised by Gobi Partners, while Jisu Energy and InterContinental Energy have secured significant funding for clean energy projects. The Asian Development Bank's capital management reforms will provide substantial new funding for addressing critical global issues.
