Emerging, incipient (7)
I believe the answer is:
nascent
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'emerging' is the first definition.
(synonyms)
'incipient' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for nascent that I've seen before include "coming into circulation?" , "Developing" , "Incipient" , "Just setting out" , "Budding early" .)
