On November 28-29, 2017, Wharton Social Impact Initiative presented an invitation-only event convening for investors and advisors who are moving capital with a gender lens in Philadelphia for a day and a half of highly interactive action-oriented workshops, discussion, and collaboration.
Wharton Social Impact Initiative and Suzanne Biegel presented a generous group of investors, philanthropists, advisors and analysts from all sectors and asset classes.
Attendees included individual high net worth investors, foundations, family offices, fund managers and their advisers, and those deploying (or on the verge of deploying) capital with a gender lens. Those present had the opportunity to explore the role of evidence in gender lens investing, while grounding big picture insights from the gender lens ecosystem in actionable learnings.
President and Founder of Criterion Institute, Joy Anderson, was one of the Day 1 conversation starters. Hear what she had to say about gender lens investing above.(Event description found here).
