In a bid to bridge the climate investment gap the first-ever World Future Forum in Lisbon this November has big plans to transform global financial systems. The Allied4Future (A4F) event is asking financial players to price in the importance of decarbonising the global economy – and create and green light the types of systems that can support this.
Sustainable Finance Goals
Through its Sustainable Finance Goals (SFGs) – a framework for divesting, shifting, and mobilising capital to fund green ventures, AF4 says it aims to ‘leverage capital and investment mechanisms, not just as tools for financial returns but as powerful drivers of the transition to a climate-neutral and sustainable economy’.
Eduardo Baptista Correia, CEO at Taguspark – Knowledge City, where the Forum is being held, said: “It’s a beautiful country to come and talk 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.”
OnePoint5Media and Innovators Magazine are media partners of the World Future Forum, taking place on 4-6 of November at Taguspark – Knowledge City, Lisbon.
