May 2018 in Frankfurt:

As part of Founder Tenke Zoltani's work with UNDP, she presented in several fora during Innovate 4 Climate on innovative finance for development outcomes. Held in Frankfurt from 22-24 May 2018, the second edition of I4C saw finance, business, technology and policy leaders meet to drive climate investment. Climate action at unprecedented speed and scale is essential for making the investments required to avoid the effects of a 2 degree warmer world and meet the Paris climate commitments. In a world of constrained public resources, traditional forms of concessional finance will not be sufficient to fund the investment required for a transition to a low-carbon future. Scaling up and accelerating access to finance – from multiple sources, as efficiently and effectively as possible - to redirect the trillions of dollars sitting in unproductive, low yielding as well as unsustainable investments towards longer-term, climate-smart investments will be key.
