Fireside: Unlocking AI for Impact – Reimagining the Future of Impact Investing
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are rapidly reshaping industries, but GIIN’s recent “State of the Market” report found that, despite growing interest, almost half of impact investors remain reticent about integrating AI into their investment process. Faced with limited understanding and uncertain track records, how should impact investors utilise AI to amplify their impact? And how can AI be used to support underlying projects and investees?
Designed to simplify and demystify AI, this discussion will empower you with actionable insights to harness AI’s transformative power and accelerate impact in your portfolio and the world.

Panel: Unlocking Venture Capital for a Sustainable Future
As climate threats, biodiversity loss, and economic uncertainty intensify, unlocking capital for decarbonisation and climate solutions has become more urgent than ever. Yet GIIN research shows that while 15-30% of global impact investments target climate-focused solutions, less than 10% reaches early-stage companies—creating an urgent gap for bold investments to fund transformative innovations.
This panel of leading VC-oriented impact investors will provide unique insight into how to navigate the challenges of risk and reward, accelerate sustainability innovation, and scale solutions for high-emitting sectors to create a cleaner and more resilient future.
16:40 - 17:25
Panel: Leveraging Sport for Impact and Sustainability in Asia
Sport transcends cultural boundaries and connects communities, yet remains underutilised as a path to social and environmental wellbeing. Strategic capital allocations into sport-related initiatives across Hong Kong and Asia Pacific can generate positive impact—from economic opportunities and community empowerment to catalysing the transition to a net-zero future. Hear from a panel of pioneers who are turning their passion for sport into powerful engines for positive change.
17:25 - 17:35
