It is a highly curated institutional investor conference that annually brings together thought leaders and practitioners in the impact investing space. The conference aims to catalyse institutional capital to support the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, promoting sustainable investing that goes hand-in-hand with market-competitive financial returns. This conference will share practical instruments for investors to increase their impact allocation, contributing to scaling their positive impact on people and the planet. It also provides the necessary content and tools to start investing for impact and returns.
Theme:
Reimagining the Purpose of Capital
A business’ purpose isn’t just to be profitable, its purpose is to fill a need in the market. Businesses will thrive by offering products and solutions that benefit people and the planet. The purpose of capital is defined by our intent. Institutional investors are therefore enablers of an equitable system in which institutional capital must play a key role in solving societal and environmental challenges on a global scale.
Given the limited time to work towards this sustainable future, there is an urgency for institutional capital to fulfil its purpose to serve people and the planet.
