On April 17, 2025, at the Best of Bangladesh Europe event in Amsterdam, Willem Grimminck (Managing Director, One to Watch) and Jaap-Jan Verboom (Managing Director, Truvalu) jointly presented “ORE II: Decarbonizing Global Supply Chains with High Impact.” They represented OneTrueValue—a powerful joint venture between One to Watch and Truvalu, driving sustainable economic growth and social impact across emerging markets through innovative financing solutions.

ORE II is a catalytic investment fund focused on accelerating industrial decarbonization in global supply chains. It begins with large-scale solar rooftop installations and expands into broader low-carbon production strategies. The presentation spotlighted ORE II’s investments alongside BESTSELLER, supporting the transition to solar energy in Bangladesh’s garment sector—one of the world’s largest apparel exporters.

With an estimated 4,000 MW of rooftop solar potential and currently less than 4% utilized, the opportunity for impact is immense. Emily Casswell, Responsible Sourcing Specialist at BESTSELLER, joined on stage to share how brands can actively collaborate with suppliers in their decarbonization journey.

By offering competitive green energy solutions and mobilizing blended finance, ORE II is empowering factories to lower energy costs, cut emissions, and align with emerging EU low-carbon regulations.

“The momentum behind green investments in Bangladesh is growing—and we’re just getting started.”
