The theme is Building a Just & Sustainable Future. A virtual convening for business leaders, impact investors, policy makers, and more. Social Venture Circle (SVC) and The American Sustainable Business Council (ASBC) have formed a new alliance to establish one of the leading socially responsible business and impact investment groups, uniting top entrepreneurs and impact investors, and the leaders of mission-driven companies in common cause while amplifying and extending the collective voice of the sustainable business community in previously impossible ways.

This year’s event will be held as a two-day virtual event, with sessions that cross time zones to bring together global voices from business, finance and government, to identify the most critical issues in the battle against climate change. We will address the global green recovery efforts, with current administration’s focus on addressing the climate crisis, and the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference which are all proof points that countries and corporations are setting aggressive net-zero goals. But how can they actually meet them? And how do we work together to repair, rebuild and renew for our climate future?

For Switzerland’s numerous pension funds (AUM €750bn+), the traditional ESG focus has been on exclusion and ESG integration (for risk management). In the last year engagement, voting, and impact investing have grown significantly for asset owners, as HNW/private bank investors also sharpen their ESG attention. Swiss pension funds and insurers are also subject to regular PACTA (Paris Agreement Capital Transition Assessment) measures by the Swiss Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN), testing their alignment against Paris 2 degrees targets. We’ll bring together Swiss regulators, investors, asset managers and service providers to examine and discuss these developments in results-driven panel discussions, case studies, and workshops.
