About this event

AVPN and the University of Zurich’s Center for Sustainable Finance and Private Wealth (CSP) have partnered to deliver a bespoke 2.5 day course on Impact Investing for the Next Generation to help next generation family members (NextGens) understand the evolving landscape of impact investing, meet peers from across Asia, and develop their unique impact strategy.

The program is based on the Harvard IRI/Zurich CSP Impact Investing for the Next Generation course and has been tailor-made to bring together a selected group of NextGens in Asia.

An important goal of the program is to build and foster strong cohorts of wealth owners committed to impact investing within a family context.
