Investing for Impact 2019 | EuroFinance | Economist Group | 12 February 2019 | 10 on the Park at Time Warner Center, 60 Columbus Circle, New York, NY 10023 - New York

While some still view investing for impact as a do-gooder vanity project and trendy movement, others are on a quest to translate all this energy and momentum into a structural part of the investments world. They see the possibility and practicality of ingraining intention and expertise on doing well by doing good into various lines of businesses.

The third annual Investing for Impact New York event will analyse:

•Where the worlds of corporate bosses and seasoned impact investors align and where do they collide?
Can one really tell when businesses are being good?

•How can the other industries be brought in line with investing for impact principles?
With bigger commitments to raising funds and a rising number of business leaders and entrepreneurs taking a wider view of what their role in society might be, what are the realistic goals to help address some of humanity’s most pressing social and environmental challenges?

•How can leaders in multiple fields of the investment community and the businesses world fulfill their mission and deliver results while staying aligned with their vision and values?

•What should be the role of presidents, prime-ministers and government leaders in using patient capital to solve urgent social and environmental issues?
