ANDE India and ANDE East and Southeast Asia are hosting a cross-chapter webinar, the Next Frontier of Innovative Finance: Impact-Linked Finance.

This 80-minute interactive session outlines the financing needs of small and growing businesses vis-a-vis the limits of impact investing and introduces you to Impact-Linked Finance, a practice of linking financial rewards for market-based organizations to the achievements of positive social outcomes. Explore together its potential for enterprise development in emerging economies via concrete examples of impact-linked financing instruments.

Our experts Bjoern Struewer, the founder and CEO of Roots of Impact, and Patrizia Baffioni, the Lead Impact-Linked Finance Programs, will highlight what, why, and how this financing mechanism works and can lead to new mainstream alternatives while providing you with resources and toolkits for further exploration. 

Also, joining us will be Usha Devi Venkatachalam, the founder and CEO of Krishi Janani, and Fauzal Rizki, the co-founder and CEO of Sampangan, who will add practical and implementable insights to the conversation.
