Investment in renewables and other infrastructure to support the energy transition must increase by a factor of seven to deliver on the Paris goals. International investment flows will play a key role, especially in developing countries where local financial resources are scarcer. Hence, investment authorities, promotion agencies and other actors in the investment facilitation chain have a key role to play, for example through the marketing of bankable projects and active support to international investors.
The Investment Promotion Conference, one of the recurring flagship events of the World Investment Forum, will bring together executives from investment promotion agencies, special economic zones, private companies as well as high level policymakers that are leading the transformation of the energy sector through innovation, collaboration and action.
