VICTORIA, Seychelles, Sept. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — As the world comes together to honor the International Day of Charity on September 5th, KuCoin is proud to reflect on its ongoing commitment to supporting communities in need through various Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives. Inspired by the legacy of Mother Teresa, whose dedication to the poor and sick has inspired millions worldwide, KuCoin reaffirmed our dedication to making a positive impact on society through meaningful actions.
In recent years, KuCoin has undertaken several projects aimed at alleviating suffering and promoting education and climate resilience in vulnerable communities. Among these efforts was the significant contribution to disaster relief in Turkey following the devastating earthquakes in the south-eastern Anatolia region. KuCoin donated 1 million Liras to Turkey’s disaster relief fund through #AFAD and provided critical aid, including food, clothing, and sanitary items, to those affected. This swift response was complemented by the efforts of local community managers and volunteers who worked tirelessly to distribute essential supplies.
Another milestone in our CSR journey was the “Light Up Africa through the Lens of Children” initiative. In partnership with the Smiling Simon Greenbuild Foundation, KuCoin donated 2,500 solar lamps to 25 schools across Nigeria. This initiative not only provided a source of light to thousands of children but also ignited dreams and opened doors to endless possibilities. The lamps symbolize a shared belief in a brighter future, where every child has access to the light of education, empowering young minds and uplifting communities.
KuCoin’s commitment to addressing global challenges is further exemplified by its Climate Change CSR Project. Through this initiative, we have introduced the Climate Change Bucket (CCB) to assist women and girls disproportionately affected by climate change. With 1,900 CCBs distributed across the Commonwealth of Bahamas and St. Jude Hospital in Africa, these buckets provide essential support, including safety mats, thermometers, and earth-hug pillows, helping communities adapt to the diverse challenges posed by climate-related impacts.
In addition, KuCoin’s Menstrual Equity Project underscores its dedication to empowering socially disadvantaged girls and women. By providing 1,000 reusable menstrual packages to various organizations, including those in Suriname, St. Jude Children’s and Research Hospital, and domestic violence shelters, We are ensuring that essential menstrual hygiene products are accessible to those in need. “KuCoin as a member of The Private Sector is making a difference to improve the lives of Women and girls through their philanthropic efforts”, said Dr. Padmini Murthy, Global Health Lead of the American Medical Women’s Association and NGO Representative to the United Nations.
As we celebrate the International Day of Charity, KuCoin reflects on the importance of giving back and the collective responsibility to support those in need. Through these initiatives, KuCoin continues to embody the spirit of charity and compassion, striving to make a lasting difference in the world.

![newco-capital-group-continues-global-expansion-as-2024-milestones-set-the-stage-for-an-ambitious-q4](https://thefintechbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/55045-newco-capital-group-continues-global-expansion-as-2024-milestones-set-the-stage-for-an-ambitious-q4.jpg)
NEW YORK, Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — As Q4 fast approaches, NewCo Capital Group (“NewCo”) and Australia-based Bizcap are finalizing year-end initiatives to strategically position both companies for an ambitious expansion in 2025.
Both companies have celebrated a highly successful 2024, marked by remarkable and accelerated growth. This momentum has been driven by Bizcap’s unique Line of Credit product, NewCo’s introduction of their “Line of Capital” product and the launch of NewCo’s new mobile app. CEO Albert Gahfi emphasized the importance of closing 2024 on a high note to set the stage for future growth. “We’ve had an exceptional year so far, but our focus is on what comes next. We’re building the foundation for 2025 and beyond, ensuring that NewCo and Bizcap are positioned for continued global expansion.”
The plan for Q4 includes deepening their presence in existing markets while making calculated moves into new territories, including Singapore, Germany, and Luxembourg. “There are new opportunities in emerging markets that are currently underserved, where we believe we can make a significant impact. As a result, 2025 promises to be an exciting year for SMB financing globally.”
By reinforcing their operational and technological infrastructure, the companies are preparing to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving global financing landscape. “2024 has been a year of strong growth, but we’re not stopping here,” Gahfi said. “We are focused on delivering innovative financing solutions that not only meet the needs of today but also anticipate the demands of tomorrow. As we head into 2025, we’re ready to expand our reach and provide even more businesses with the capital they need.”
Part of a multinational collaboration, NewCo and Bizcap have successfully deployed over $1.5 billion to over 35,000 businesses worldwide. Gahfi commented, “We’re moving capital faster and more effectively than any other sector and our clients are benefiting from that growth.”
NewCo’s strength lies in its ability to adapt quickly, using a unique mix of proprietary technology, nuanced underwriting, and an experienced risk management team. The companies’ hybrid approach is challenging outdated financing models, making NewCo a preferred partner for SMBs looking for custom capital solutions that truly fit their needs.
“We’re not just growing; we’re leading,” Gahfi added. “As we expand globally, our goal remains the same—helping small businesses scale, create jobs, and thrive.”
With a clear strategy and a relentless focus on delivering value, NewCo Capital Group is primed to deepen its market influence and capitalize on emerging opportunities. As the company prepares for its next wave of market entries, Q4 will serve as a pivotal launchpad for an even more ambitious 2025, setting the stage for continued growth and global leadership.

Zulu Ecosystems and Severn Trent Water secure Innovate UK funding to pioneer catchment-scale Nature-based Solutions
![zulu-ecosystems-and-severn-trent-water-secure-innovate-uk-funding-to-pioneer-catchment-scale-nature-based-solutions](https://thefintechbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/55039-zulu-ecosystems-and-severn-trent-water-secure-innovate-uk-funding-to-pioneer-catchment-scale-nature-based-solutions.png)
- Partnership aims to develop innovative funding model for nature-based solutions that enhance water resilience in the Idle and Torne catchment, a priority area for environmental improvement
- Project will aggregate supply and demand for ecosystem services across the 1,200km2 catchment, benefiting both nature and local communities
- Led by Zulu Ecosystems, the collaboration seeks to accelerate private investment in nature recovery while addressing critical water challenges
LONDON, Sept. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Zulu Ecosystems and Severn Trent Water have been awarded funding from Innovate UK, the UK’s innovation agency, for a £580,000 project to develop a groundbreaking catchment system operator model for unlocking private investment in nature. The project aims to enhance water resilience and deliver multiple benefits for both nature and local communities in the Idle and Torne River catchment.
The Idle and Torne catchment, identified as a priority catchment by the Environment Agency, faces significant challenges including drought risk, flood vulnerability, and water quality issues. Approximately 60% of water bodies in the catchment currently fail to meet good ecological status. However, the area also presents substantial opportunities for nature recovery, with potential to restore over 5,000 hectares of priority habitats and significantly improve water resources management.
This innovative partnership will leverage Zulu Ecosystems’ cutting-edge natural capital assessment capabilities and Severn Trent Water’s expertise in water management to create a scalable approach for funding and delivering nature-based solutions. The project will focus on interventions such as woodland creation, wetland restoration, and riparian woodland to address the catchment’s pressing environmental challenges. The project will engage local stakeholders, including farmers, landowners, and community groups, to ensure that interventions reflect local needs and knowledge.
Ed Asseily, CEO of Zulu Ecosystems, said:
“This funding from Innovate UK is a game-changer for how we approach local nature recovery and water resilience. By developing a catchment-scale model that aggregates both the supply of and demand for ecosystem services, we can accelerate the flow of private capital into nature-based solutions.”
Severn Trent Water will play a key role as the project’s System Operator, strategically coordinating plans and aligning stakeholder priorities to maximise outcomes for water services and the environment.
Richard Smith, Strategic Asset Planning Manager at Severn Trent Water, commented:
“We’re excited to partner with Zulu Ecosystems on this transformative project. By adopting a system operator approach, we can ensure that investments in nature-based solutions deliver the greatest possible benefits for our customers, local communities, and the environment.”
This project has been funded by Innovate UK as part of the ‘Integrating Finance and Biodiversity for a Nature Positive Future’ programme, a joint initiative between the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) and Innovate UK. This £7 million programme aims to develop solutions that embed the values of biodiversity into financial decision-making.
By bridging the gap between nature recovery and water resilience, this project has the potential to create a replicable model for sustainable landscape management across the UK. Innovate UK’s support underscores the national significance of developing new approaches to environmental management that can deliver multiple benefits, including improved water security, enhanced biodiversity, climate resilience, and potential new income streams for landowners.
Over the next 9 months, the project team will work closely with local stakeholders to identify priority interventions and develop a portfolio of investable nature-based solutions. The project aims to demonstrate how multi-stakeholder nature-based projects can be developed, funded, and delivered at catchment-scale to address climate adaptation and reverse biodiversity loss. Findings will be published to help scale similar initiatives across the UK and beyond.
