The Conference brings together leading international academics, policymakers, and practitioners to present innovative research and engage in dialogue on critical issues in sustainable finance. Launched in 2017 by the Department of Management of the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, the Conference has become a key annual meeting for global experts in social impact finance.
