Events at Cambridge Associates

Designing a brighter and more equitable future through sustainable and impact investing requires both qualitative and quantitative tools at our disposal today, and those yet to come. Our 9th annual Impact Investing Forum took place in Toronto, Canada, and aimed to help investors prudently navigate risk, find actionable opportunities, and authentically contribute to real-world solutions to the most pressing challenges faced by communities worldwide. This year, we explored the art and science of sustainable and impact investing. Practitioners, forward-thinking allocators, non-profit, and family investors partook in engaging discussions and interactive breakout sessions on the latest innovations, case studies, and best practices around sustainable and impact investing, including:

• Art: As we harness creative inspiration to develop and implement theories of change, we continue to push the limits of our imagination to sketch inclusive blueprints for economic, social, and environmental equity and health.
• Science: At the same time, we develop and analyze data, metrics, and research to test impact theses and measure progress toward truly sustainable real-world outcomes over time.

On September 6, 11:00am–12:00pm ET/4:00pm-5:00pm BST, Cambridge Associates’ held an online discussion where thought leaders shared their perspectives on risks and opportunities the energy transition brings to the investment landscape. Watch the event replay here. The webinar focused on how considerable capital will be needed to fund the transition to a low-carbon economy as called for in the 2015 Paris Agreement. Technological advancements and recent policy initiatives are unlocking opportunities for investors to both profit from and accelerate the transition through investments in private and public markets. At the same time, the disruptive forces this evolution brings will create plenty of losers. To benefit, investors must have a thoughtful strategy grounded in an understanding of the risks and rewards. A live Q&A with our participants followed the presentation.
