This year’s virtual Berlin Green Investment Summit (BGIS) will be held as a series of short quarterly video calls on the topic: Business solutions to close the climate finance gap
4:00- 4:45 pm CET each last Thursday of a quarter, until we meet again in person
(17 December 2020, 25 March 2021, 24 June 2021…).
The next webinar will take place via Zoom on 24 September 2020 - 4:00 -4:45 pm CET.
We are proud to have presentations by Dagmar Nixdorf, Managing Director of NIXDORF Finanz GmbH, Davor Sutija, Chief Executive Officer at NexWafe, Igor Kocis, CEO at GA drilling and Tim Houter- Co-founder & CEO at Hardt Hyperloop.
Entrepreneurs play a vital role to help close the climate finance gap. They can either move capital to climate solution or offer profitably solutions to get us to net zero emissions quick enough to survive as a species.
The aim of this quarter’s BGIS is thus to showcase four important entrepreneurial initiatives. Each can play a major role in reducing and closing the climate finance gap.
We will ask each of them to present their business plans with significant impact on the world.
We will then go into break-out sessions to discuss
1) what is your own background and interest in the field,
2) what we think about the presentations we just heard,
3) what is needed to efficiently allocate the €750bn of EU COVID stimulus package, of which €250bn are to support “EU Green Deal” projects
4) how would you allocate the €250bn,
5) how would the announced EU-CO2-border-tax impact the “old economy” and the new businesses which presented today
A closing panel of speakers will then discuss the break-out session results.
Let us find ways to cooperate in order to move significant amounts of capital towards climate solutions, in particular into areas perceived as risky, such as project development and scaling-up “green” ventures. Once these are bankable, lots of capital can flow.
Shortly after you accept this invitation you can register by ordering a free ticket via Eventbrite. We will then give you with the log-in details. Participation without registration will not be possible as we are pre-arranging the virtual break-out sessions.
