When Investment Meets OpportunityPathways to Sustainable Development (Calgary)

Join Opportunity International Canada and Sarona Asset Management for an engaging panel discussion on the transformative potential of impact investing.

On June 14th, 2023, CAFIID convened 97 stakeholders to explore opportunities to advance the commitments CAFIID made in its 2021 State of the Sector Report and to address the barriers inhibiting its growth in an effort to contribute to the development of the global impact investing ecosystem with a focus on emerging economies. Through a series of working groups, the participants examined a variety of issues related to SDG focused impact investing and developed recommendations for CAFIID and the sector. The event also featured the launch of an Impact Measurement and Management Community of Practice (IMM CoP) and working closely with other Canadian impact investing organizations to advance a National Advisory Board on impact investing. These two areas will be critical for advancing impact investing in Canada and around the globe.
