DFID India Development Capital Investments held an invitation-only Early Market Engagement event for select participants in April 2019. The purpose of the engagement was to share their proposed design, and gather market feedback, ahead of issuing RFPs for their Start-up and INVENT programs, that propose to support select Funds in India with a deployment target of upto £30 million.
