Funding Organizations

Cluster development initiatives are being funded by a large number of institutions, national and international. Most international donor agencies, especially in India, tend to provide small, flexible, focused and selective grant-based support for policy, advocacy and path breaking initiatives with an intention to expand existing frontiers of knowledge. On the other hand, most national and state level ministries and public institutions tend to support large scale initiatives in line with their sectoral or thematic mandate. A list of funding organizations that have been supporting cluster based SME development work is provided below:
