Join 2X Global and Amazon for an exclusive event celebrating the pivotal role of women’s leadership in climate action. The session will open with a fireside chat setting the scene for understanding why gender-smart climate finance is no longer optional. It will highlight how an integrated ecosystem empowers women entrepreneurs to scale high-impact climate solutions that safeguard our planet’s future, and why programmes such as the Resilience Futures Fund (RFF) can have a transformative impact on women-led and benefitting organisations.

Following the opening dialogue, we will shift to a conversation featuring some Africa-based RFF grantees and their investee companies. These leaders will share practical success stories of how catalytic grant funding has bridged the gap from ideation to impact, enabling them to build resilient, market-ready ventures. The event will conclude with a networking reception, providing a dedicated space for investors and innovators to connect and explore opportunities for collaboration in mobilising capital toward gender-smart climate solutions.
