Climate Bridge International launches in Singapore with EDB grant

The company aims to accelerate the design and financing of carbon projects aligned with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

Climate Bridge International, a new joint venture backed by China’s Climate Bridge Group and climate finance leaders Alvin Lim and Tan Chin Hwee, has launched its operations in Singapore to develop high-integrity carbon credit projects worldwide.

Supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) through its Carbon Project Development Grant, the company aims to accelerate the design and financing of carbon projects aligned with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

These projects will target countries that have established carbon market agreements with Singapore.

Chairman Tan Chin Hwee said the EDB grant will enable the company to fast-track feasibility studies and project development efforts.

Climate Bridge International will focus on underserved regions in the Global South, where local developers face challenges in accessing capital, expertise, and global markets.

Using an asset-light model, the company plans to bridge these gaps by partnering directly with asset owners and communities.

Drawing on the Climate Bridge Group’s 18-year track record, Climate Bridge International will offer end-to-end services across nature- and tech-based solutions.

Project types will include afforestation, mangrove restoration, low-carbon transport, renewable energy, and more. All projects will be independently verified under global standards.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
