| 12.00pm | Presentation // Green Financing through Transformative Investments We are soon eight billion people traveling through space on planet Earth, totally dependent on this planet’s resources and the ecosystem services provided by its biosphere. Therefore, the only way to reach the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to make sure the biosphere thrives and that we are resourceful with all non-renewables so that they last for all living humans, as well as future generations. This will require huge transformations in how we generate our energy, produce our food, build our houses, move around and create all the clothes and objects we need in our lives. These transformations need to happen and, therefore, will happen, and they are probably the greatest investment opportunities of all time. Gullspång Re:food is an investor in Oatly and fourteen other companies driving sustainability transformations in the energy and food systems. Our formula for transformative impact investing is simple yet powerful: 1) define the boundaries for a sustainable future 2) identify the root-cause-problems in the current system 3) describe strategies for eliminating these problems, and 4) look for companies that can unlock these strategies through transformative innovations Speaker: Gustaf Brandberg, Founding Partner, Gullspång Re:Food (Sweden) | |
