WTC Mumbai Seminar: Carbon Markets & Green Finance

July 16, 2025

WTC Mumbai & AIAI to Host Seminar on Carbon Markets and Forest Finance for India’s Climate Future

Businesses, sustainability advocates, and finance professionals are invited to attend a high-impact seminar jointly organized by World Trade Center Mumbai and the All India Association of Industries (AIAI). The event, titled “Seminar on Forests & Finance: Carbon Markets as Catalysts for Climate Investment”, aims to uncover the growing business opportunities within carbon markets, REDD+, and green finance, especially tailored for MSMEs and the private sector.

Business Meets Climate: Exploring Green Finance Pathways

The seminar focuses on aligning India’s climate and forest protection goals with viable investment and participation opportunities for the corporate sector, including Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs).

With the global carbon market projected to grow from $2 billion to $40 billion by 2030, the session will explore how Indian enterprises can gain from carbon credits, REDD+ projects, and sustainable forest initiatives. India alone has the potential to generate over 500 million carbon credits annually, providing a significant revenue stream for businesses implementing eco-friendly practices.

Additionally, over $1.5 billion was globally invested in forest and REDD+ projects in 2023, indicating strong financial momentum in this space.
