The All On Innovation Ecosystem Development Programme gives ventures the facilities and mentorship to work through their solutions before they go looking for capital.

Founded in 2021 by The Rockefeller Foundation, IKEA Foundation and Bezos Earth Fund, we build the technical, financial and institutional foundations that make clean energy investable and scalable across emerging economies. Our work is anchored in two mutually reinforcing global pillars that together address the market fragmentation that has historically slowed down progress on energy access and economic development. Grids of the Future strengthens energy supply through AI-enabled, renewables-ready power grids. Powering Opportunity builds demand, helping people harness clean energy to power businesses, create jobs and drive economic growth. Together, these pillars create a reinforcing cycle of abundant energy and economic opportunity. With 130 projects across Africa, Asia and Latin America and the Caribbean, we are on track to reach 91 million people with clean energy, create or improve more than 3 million jobs and prevent nearly 300 million tons of carbon emissions. \u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EFor more information, please visit \u003Ca href=\"https://energyalliance.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003Ewww.energyalliance.org\u003C/a\u003E and follow us on \u003Ca href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/company/globalenergyalliance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003ELinkedIn\u003C/a\u003E.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n"}}],"id":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes/jcr_content/root/main/section","model":{}}],"id":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes/jcr_content/root/main","model":{}},{"organism":"Container.Footer","children":[{"organism":"Breadcrumb.Large","model":{"links":[{"name":"Home","value":"https://www.all-on.com/"},{"name":"Media","value":"https://www.all-on.com/media.html"},{"name":" Media releases","value":"https://www.all-on.com/media/media-releases.html"},{"name":"All On Launches Innovation Ecosystem Development Programme to Help Clean Energy Ventures Move from Ideas to Prototypes","value":"https://www.all-on.com/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes.html"}]},"id":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes/jcr_content/root/footer/breadcrumb"},{"organism":"Container.Raw","ref":"https://www.all-on.com/_jcr_content/root/footer/inherited.model.json","id":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes/jcr_content/root/footer/inherited","model":{}}],"id":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes/jcr_content/root/footer","model":{}}],"id":"/conf/shell/settings/wcm/templates/base/structure/jcr_content/root","model":{}}],"model":{"title":"All On Launches Innovation Ecosystem Development Programme to Help Clean Energy Ventures Move from Ideas to Prototypes","text":"All On has launched the AO-IEDP, a 12-month programme supporting Nigerian clean energy startups with mentorship, technical training, and prototype development to accelerate innovation and growth.","date":"2026-08-24T12:30:00.000Z","links":[{"name":"canonical","value":"https://www.all-on.com/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes.html"},{"name":"errorUrl","value":"https://www.all-on.com/error.html"},{"name":"hierarchy","value":"en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes"},{"name":"homeTitle","value":"All On"},{"name":"homeUrl","value":"https://www.all-on.com/"},{"name":"locale","value":"en-GB"},{"name":"title","value":"All On Launches Innovation Ecosystem Development Programme to Help Clean Energy Ventures Move from Ideas to Prototypes | All On"},{"name":"textDirection","value":"ltr"},{"name":"template","value":"base"},{"name":"contentPath","value":"/content/shell/business/allon/en_gb/media/media-releases/all-on-launches-innovation-ecosystem-development-programme-to-help-clean-energy-ventures-move-from-ideas-to-prototypes"},{"name":"externalDisclaimerText","value":"All On Partnerships for Energy Access LTD/GTE Legal Disclaimer\r\n\r\nYou are now leaving the All On website.\r\nThe link you have selected will direct you to a website that is not controlled by All On Partnerships for Energy Access Ltd/Gte.
