Entrepreneurship in the territories: is it the right time?

Inception & Workplan: Inception meeting with WVFT. Confirm methodology, sources, risk management, validation approach. Submit an Inception Report with refined scope, tools, and schedule.
Desk Review and Donor Mapping: Build a comprehensive list of Thai and international corporates with operations in Thailand; corporate/family foundations; ESG funds/impact investors; industry associations; blended‑finance arrangers; DFIs/MDBs and bilateral facilities relevant to private co‑financing and corporates pursuing brand and consumer-engagement partnerships. Extract mandates, thematic priorities, eligibility, instruments, funding cycles, typical ticket sizes, geographic coverage, reporting/impact frameworks, and compliance requirements.
IPF‑Aligned Mapping & Opportunity Scoring: Feed desk review data into an opportunity scoring matrix (strategic fit, scale, competitiveness, WVFT readiness, brand/reputational risk, compliance) and analyze against each IPF in order to produce IPF‑specific mapping and a prioritized shortlist (quick wins vs. strategic bets) of target donors and engagement strategies. As part of this exercise, include factors such as potential partners and competitors, as well as a potential for developing innovative funding models (e.g. blended finance).
Corporate & Private Funding Strategy (Draft & Final): Strategy document covering market overview, prioritized pipeline (12–24 months), resourcing plan, internal capacity and needs. Facilitate a validation/decision workshop with WVFT; integrate feedback into the final strategy.
