TORONTO, April 16, 2024 /CNW/ - Today, Scotiabank announced that it is accepting grant submissions across its footprint for the Net-Zero Research Fund. Organizations developing innovative research and opportunities to decarbonize key sectors and support the shift to a low-carbon economy have until May 28, 2024, to submit a submission for funding.

Since 2021, Scotiabank's Net-Zero Research Fund has distributed CAD$3 million to more than 30 registered charities and non-profit organizations conducting climate and decarbonization research.
