The private sector will be a vital partner to public efforts to direct more investment effectively towards sustainable development. This session, organized in the format of investment stakeholders networking breakfasts or luncheons, will be the opportunity for private sector entities – global TNCs, SMEs and Foundations – to present their existing programmes and initiatives in support of sustainable development to the international community.
This session will present how to operationalize the SDGs into a comprehensive investment strategy that suits the needs of private and institutional investors (in particular pension funds, large foundations, wealth managers and family offices).
