Connectivity
Connecting producers and end-users. Disintermediating the Climate Markets
(Impact and Value)²
Fair VER Prices. More funding to Climate Action Projects and Local Communities
Origins
CYNK was born out of the need to democratise climate markets. With seven years of project experience in rural Kenya, the need to channel carbon financing directly to projects and local communities is under-realised.
Innovation
Climate markets are currently complex, over intermediated, and untrusted. CYNK captures the full climate action value chain with end to end transparency and auditability, unlocking Africa’s rich natural assets, acting as a catalyst to deliver exponential social impact, fighting climate change.
Leveraging proprietary climate tech, CYNK is unlocking early stage financing, establishing fair pricing and enabling greater carbon based revenues to reach local communities, that is delivering sustainable development on the ground.
Revolution
Our least worst option is investment. That’s why CYNK has started the climate finance revolution.
For example: “9 out of the 10 most vulnerable countries to climate change are in sub-Saharan Africa. These countries need about $600 billion through 2030, which amounts to about $60 billion annually. Yet, they are only receiving roughly $18 billion a year toward this effort.” — Akinwumi Adesina, President, African Development Bank
