01What it is

Three hours, structured so you leave with relationships.

Most networking events leave the matching to chance and a name badge. This one does the work up front: we ask what you are building and what you are looking for when you RSVP, and we use it to steer the room. Lunch is served, the conversations are the programming, and three hours is long enough to have a real one.

02Who it is for

01

Founders & operators

Building something with a real climate, health, or infrastructure outcome. Raising now or getting to know the funds before you do.

RSVP as a founder 02

GPs & funds

Investing with an impact mandate, at any stage. Come to meet companies ahead of a process rather than inside one.

RSVP as an investor 03

LPs & the wider field

Allocators, operators, and the people who make this market work. Open to impact investing professionals generally.

RSVP as an LP
