AVPN Academy, in partnership with the ESADE Business School Centre for Social Impact, is offering a fellowship programme that seeks to help practitioners gain deeper understanding of how impact investing approaches can help address societal challenges.
The course strives to be eminently practical and applicable to a variety of contexts. Fellows will analyse cases of different types of investment opportunities and impact investors across different sectors and continents, and explore the investment strategy and process of an impact investing fund.
Participants are not required to have a background in finance – indeed the focus will be on the impact side rather than the financial side of impact investing.
This is a hybrid programme involving a mix of virtual sessions and an in-person convening in Abu Dhabi, where fellows will also have the opportunity to connect with each other and impact practitioners from around the globe.
