New Ventures Under Exploration

Where ECube is looking next.

Our research and on-ground intelligence continuously surface new institutional opportunities. Two ventures are currently under active exploration.

Climate Lending
Debt Finance Venture
Small-ticket lending to climate-focused SMEs. Innovative financing products in mitigation and adaptation. ECube's earlier analysis in this space led to the creation of Ecofy — India's recognised climate NBFC.
ECube Director Govind Sankaranarayanan serves as COO of Ecofy.
Capital Markets
Public Markets Fund
Sustainability-focused fund targeting a curated portfolio of under-researched but well-regarded small and mid-cap companies in India's public markets.
Prior exploration with Quantum Advisors for a US$1bn fund — aborted at COVID onset.
