Mobilising the Mixed Capital Stack for Climate Innovation and Inclusion
Join us for an exciting event taking place during Climate Week Zurich
Mobilising the Mixed Capital Stack for Climate Innovation and Inclusion – a Panel and World Café discussion
How do we bridge the gap between philanthropy and investment capital — from traditional and returnable grants to impact investment, venture capital, and climate insurance — to fund climate solutions that are both innovative and inclusive?
This session convenes a unique mix of actors across the capital continuum: grant-makers, catalytic capital providers, impact-linked funders, technical assistance facilities, and de-risking specialists. Together, they will explore opportunities for collaboration and partnership in support of climate solutions in developing and emerging markets — with a particular focus on women-led climate innovators and financial institutions offering climate risk mitigation and adaptation products.
The event opens with a moderated panel, followed by an interactive World Café discussion — a structured small-group format designed to surface actionable insights and foster genuine connections across the funding ecosystem.
The audience will include impact investors, foundations, family offices, and philanthropic institutions.
