Twenty-first century moonshots don’t get much bigger or more important than trying to decarbonise the global economy. And if the de facto engineer of this mission is the financial world, then reengineering the financial world should go top of the pre-launch priorities list.
Because only by transforming the financial system can the current climate investment gap be bridged. Which means rebuilding using new blocks of certainty, intergenerational thinking and incentives that can give investors the steer they need to price in decarbonisation.
Allied4Future (A4F) launched with the goal of putting the financial world onto this type of trajectory and with its first-ever World Future Forum, being held in Lisbon in November, it will welcome those heading in the same direction.
Eduardo Baptista Correia, CEO at Taguspark – Knowledge City, where the Forum is being held, said: “It’s a beautiful place in a beautiful country to start once again thinking about the future, to start joining efforts for a better future to make sure we find new business, new startups, new business angels that might invest in new ideas, because we need to create a better future for the next generations.”
Innovators Magazine is a media partner of the World Future Forum, taking place on 4-6 of November at Taguspark – Knowledge City, Lisbon.
