Anchoring Investment to Cultivate a Resilient Future

Latin America and the Caribbean’s premier hub for collaboration and impact investment.

IDB Invest’s award-winning Sustainability Wweek convenes global and regional business leaders to exchange solutions, build strategic partnerships, and unlock business opportunities that drive impact, competitiveness, and sustainable growth.

The Opportunity: Mobilizing Impact Capital

The global investment landscape is shifting, creating unprecedented opportunities for sustainable development in emerging markets.

Surging Investor Appetite: Investor appetite for sustainable assets in emerging markets is experiencing significant growth, with capital increasingly flowing toward projects that deliver both financial returns and measurable impact.

Project Pipeline Gap: Latin America & the Caribbean face an important shortage of bankable, risk-adjusted projects that meet international investment standards.
