Economy
From sustainable to Impact Finance
Live Streaming from Innovation House Dubai Marina - 12:30 Cet Time
Sustainable Finance, Impact Finance and Circular Economy can offer great opportunities for Corporates to deliver on climate commitments and other ESG objectives. The adoption of these practices has the potential to reduce risk and increase resilience through business model diversification, decoupling economic growth from resource use and environmental impact. Moreover, technology can play a key-role to manage this change.
Intesa Sanpaolo Banking Group and Its strategic partners, together with international keynote speakers will discuss about strengths and opportunities to support the transition towards the ESG principles.
