Climate finance is crucial in the fight against climate change, due to the scale of investments required to transition to a global low-carbon economy. Despite headwinds that have affected most financial markets, investments in climate technologies continue to rise. According to McKinsey, from 2019 to the end of 2022, venture capital investors launched over 330 new sustainable development and impact funds. The cumulative assets under management of these funds tripled, increasing from $90 billion to over $270 billion. During this webinar, we invite you to explore the opportunities and challenges faced by three leading actors in the Canadian climate finance scene. The event will be held in French.The login link will be sent to you the day before.A recording will be made available for 30 days to all registered participants after the event.
