New Silk Roads initiated and launched the Green Growth Summit in Tunis (2024) and Cairo (2024, 2025). A regional learning platform, the Green Growth Summit transformed lessons from early movers in the green economy into actionable insights to localise and accelerate regenerative economies.

Across three editions, the Green Growth Summit convened 600+ green transition frontrunners, facilitated South–South collaboration between entrepreneurs and Africa-focused climate funds, raised awareness on green sector impact investing, and created a donor task force in Tunisia focused on the green economy.

New Silk Roads also raised an additional ~100K EUR in sponsorship to expand the summits’ reach and impact.
