***What Happens the Day After We Put Nature on the Balance Sheet?***
The global economy is at an inflection point. For the first time in history, natural capital is being recognized not as a cost center or a philanthropic cause, but as a balance-sheet asset with measurable, investable value. The implications for capital markets, sovereign debt, and institutional portfolios are profound.
Join a panel of leading voices shaping this transition moderated by: Natasha Berg — founder of Try Story Consulting, trusted advisor to the United Nations, and a leading voice who has shaped global ocean advocacy and communications for over a decade.
Dr. Sylvia Earle — Legendary marine scientist and oceanographer, and Founder Mission Blue.
Dr. Ralph Chami — Former Assistant Director at the International Monetary Fund, architect of valuing nature’s services, CEO Blue Green Future.
Jeremy McKane — Entrepreneur, artist, explorer, and founder of OCN.ai, the exchange platform powering real-time valuation of ocean ecosystems.
Chris Gorell Barnes — Co-Founder of Ocean 14 Capital and Blue Marine Foundation
Together, they’ll explore how demand-side finance is meeting supply in the emerging blue economy, and what it means for asset managers, sovereigns, and corporations the day after nature becomes a line item in global finance.
