The purpose of this Innovative Partnership Announcement is to solicit applications from interested parties wishing to receive technical assistance and funding from the Feed the Future Ghana Mobilizing Finance in Agriculture (MFA) Activity.

Palladium is implementing a program funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID).

These partnerships will be between commercial firms and other actors, which may include but not limited to anchor buyers, corporate entities, financial institutions (FIs), large-scale agricultural investors, technology firms, digital/mobile money platforms, agricultural alliances, smallholders, and micro-entrepreneurs. Palladium will provide technical assistance to structure these partnerships, help identify potential partners and structure financing solutions, provide co-funding and oversee the implementation of these new ways to lend at scale to the underserved customer base profitably.
