The importance of ESG and Responsible Investment has never been more relevant for the private capital industry. Sustainability issues, especially climate, biodiversity, diversity and equity and other environmental and social considerations, have become deeply embedded in global political discourse. This has spurred policymakers and regulators to design and implement a range of sustainability-related rules and disclosure requirements that affect businesses across the UK financial services industry, private capital firms included.

This full day conference will cover the full breadth of ESG topics relevant to private capital including impact and how VCs are developing their Responsible Investment Practices.

  • Horizon scanning: Politics, policies, and regulations
