Mirko Zuerker

Mirko Zuerker is Head of Programme Green Entrepreneurship and was instrumental in creating and developing the renowned SEED initiative for green enterprises. In cooperation with policy-makers and funders of green enterprises, he develops innovative approaches to improve conditions, mobilise financing, and allow the positive impact of green businesses to be measured. In his many years of work in Africa and Asia, he has coined the term toolification to make his work have a broader impact.

“Green enterprises are the drivers and the vanguard of global transformation. They inspire me to make existing programmes better every day, with the goal of scaling up entrepreneurial approaches.”
