About the Event:
Save the date for our first in-person event for some time! We’re planning for a lively, interactive discussion on social- and impact-finance, aimed at exploring the various lenses, framing, challenges and opportunities linked to this growing area. Topics will include impact investing, ESG investing, blended finance and casting an eye to the future to debate the overall systemic impact these flows of money may likely have, from individual pension fund construction to the change in geo-politics. The panel (in the process of being constructed) will be hosted by Clint (head of the Yale Club of South Africa and a consultant to the UNDP) and Galina (co-lead of Yale SOM London Chapter, Impact Investor). The panel will debate the range of issues, and encourage open and flee-flowing discussion with all participants. So, please save the date as more information is shared!

We invite all Yale alumni and their guests to participate, together with alumni of the Global Network for Advanced Management member schools. Attendance is free of charge, but registration is mandatory.
