    Showcasing Bold Pathways for Meaningful Change at the Impact Investment Summit

    We have been deep in developing the content plan for the Impact Investment Summit 2024 where we will delve into the powerful themes of Inclusion, Systems Change, Climate, Community, The Arts and more. Our journey will begin by spotlighting community and social impact, with a particular focus on vital areas such as Housing, Inclusion and Education. In a world where disparities persist, we’ll hear from visionaries who are reshaping the landscape of accessible and inclusive living and learning environments. We will engage with thought leaders driving the transition to a more sustainable and resilient future. The sustainability dialogue will extend to nature, agriculture, and waste. In the spirit of true inclusivity, the 2024 Summit will emphasise the value of representation and collaboration. The community clusters, comprising Advisors, Foundations, Institutional Investors, and Family Offices, will converge to forge connections that transcend boundaries and inform the Summit thematics. With excitement and anticipation, we invite you to join us at the Impact Investment Summit as we embark on a transformative journey. Together, we have the potential to be catalysts for meaningful change across systems, communities, and our shared planet. With deep gratitude for the advice and support of our wonderful Advisory Board.

    Corporate Impact Measurement & Management

    Both corporate social investors (CSIs) and other impact investors share the common goal of fostering positive social and environmental change through Impact Measurement and Management (IMM), but CSIs may introduce variations due to their corporate ties. CSIs have the potential of integrating social impact into the business context and IMM plays a crucial role in achieving this, using language and data that resonate with corporate colleagues and ensure meaningful impact metrics comparability.

    Following our successful article publication and session at Impact Week 2023, mark Wednesday 20 March, 15:00 – 16:15 for an e-talk. Expect inspiring discussions with thought leaders on integrating social impact into corporate contexts, emphasizing the role of Impact Measurement and Management in achieving this synergy. Register here!

    2024 Sustainable Business and Social Impact Conference

    The theme of this year’s conference is Building a Better Tomorrow. In today’s world, companies are constantly thinking about the sustainability of their business choices and how they can best prepare for the future. With more and more focus being placed on their environmental and social impacts, companies must act today to adapt and build for their success tomorrow. What does it look like when impact and sustainability are woven into the core of a company’s growth plan? How do organizations choose the social or environmental issues they care about and track progress to meeting goals? We’ll answer these questions and more at the 19th Annual Sustainable Business and Social Impact (SBSI) Conference. By registering you’ll receive access to all sessions, breakfast, and lunch on the day of the conference.

    ANDE x GSMA: Empowering Climate Resilience Through Digital Entrepreneurship

    ANDE East and Southeast Asia, ANDE South Asia, and GSMA cordially invite you to join a knowledge-sharing session on ‘Empowering Climate Resilience Through Digital Entrepreneurship’. Climate change, exceeding 1°C above pre-industrial levels, urgently impacts humanity, particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This session will present the role of digital and mobile-enabled solutions in addressing climate change. It highlights interventions with significant potential to mitigate, adapt to, and build resilience against climate change in LMICs. Our featured entrepreneurs will guide us through how they harness the potential of climate data and analytics to effectively address the pressing issues of climate change and create meaningful impact for government, enterprises, and farmers. Join us for an engaging conversation that goes beyond borders and lays the groundwork for a more sustainable future in climate-digital entrepreneurship within the region. This session is a part of ANDE Asia Talent Development Series, and if you have any topics you are interested in learning more about, please contact Ploy at ploy.phong@aspeninstitute.org.
