Speaker Session

15:05–16:20

Workshop Salon: Thematic Trends & Challenges

Salon 5: Unlocking Markets Through Collective Catalytic Capital

This Salon will examine the understated power of aligned investors whose individual commitments, intentionally structured and aggregated, can form vehicles able to absorb risk, send credible market signals, and unlock significantly larger flows of capital.

Through a nuanced conversation on blended finance, shared standards, and cross-sector collaboration, we will explore how coordinated pools of purpose-driven capital can shift incentives, widen access in overlooked markets, and catalyse durable, inclusive, climate-aligned growth at meaningful scale.
