Financial Innovation and Impact Investing for Nature & Climate

Description

Are you interested in exploring the role of financial innovation and impact investing in driving change for nature and climate?

Join Dr. Stephanie Gripne and Elynn Walter on August 21 at 11 am PST or September 16 at 12 pm PST to learn how impact investing and Full Spectrum Capital can be applied to natural resource and climate solutions. These webinars will introduce the in-person program Financial Innovation and Impact Investing for Nature & Climate at Tenaya Lodge in Yosemite (October 21-22, 2025) hosted by Impact Finance Center, UC Merced Professional and Continuing Education, and University of California Agriculture and Natural Resources. We’ll look at the program agenda and explore how individuals, foundations, family offices, corporations, and pension funds can deploy catalytic capital to build ecosystem resilience, restore climate function, and drive sustainable economic transformation. The two day Yosemite program is perfect for those new to impact finance or for experienced investors interested in applying financial innovation tools to climate and nature solutions.

The agenda will also spotlight social ventures (i.e. mission-aligned projects, nonprofits, small businesses, startups, and funds that work in nature, climate, and ecosystem resilience) via an online marketplace. We encourage social ventures to attend one of the webinars for more information.
