DC Net Impact Professional Chapter
Impact Investing Event Series
presents

Financial and Social Valuations of Impact Investment Opportunities

WHEN:  Wednesday, December 7, 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM  

WHAT:  The DC Net Impact Professional Chapter invites you to a panel discussion that will explore how leading impact investment organizations evaluate investment opportunities with financial and extra-financial return propositions.  This lively discussion will include panelists that represent a diversity of perspectives, ranging from those that require market rate returns to those that prioritize mission-fit over return expectations.  Further, we will explore due diligence methodologies, risk mitigation strategies, and frameworks to evaluate social return on investment.  Panelists will consider what success looks like in this still relatively ambiguous new field.  Further, as a group we will investigate the concrete distinctions in the philosophies of panelists and how these distinctions contribute to the nature of the deals that they choose to pursue.

Moderated by John Simon, Founding Partner, Total Impact Advisors & CGD Fellow.

We will be tweeting live from the event to hash tags #DCNI #NetImpact, #ImpInv & #SocEnt. Our Twitter handle is @DC_Net_Impact and we’re providing the handles for each panelist below. Please join us!

Light refreshments will be served.
