Donor organizations, foundations, and some venture capital firms are key actors in the financial inclusion ecosystem and are now increasing efforts to engage and partner with new and underrepresented local actors to design and implement programs with sustainable outcomes (actors such as Interledger Foundation grantees). The purpose of this panel is to highlight the efforts of bilateral and multilateral donor organizations, foundations, and VCs to engage with underrepresented actors, such as many of Interledger's grantees, and provide practical information on how session attendees can prepare themselves to pursue awards and investments from these diverse funders successfully.
