Description

The Technical Assistance Facility (TAF) is a pool of funding within the PIDG Trust to assist PIDG companies to support capacity building and to help scope out potential investment opportunities. Where possible some grants are provided on a returnable basis. TAF also provides Viability Gap Funding (VGF) support, which is designed to make projects that are economically viable over the long term, commercially viable for investors.
