Unlocking Capital Webinar
Presented by ADGM Academy in partnership with the Global Centre for Climate Finance (GCFC)
We are pleased to announce the launch of our new three-part webinar series, “The Climate Investment Lifecycle: From Capital to Impact,” in partnership with GCFC. This series explores how to mobilise, deploy, and measure the impact of capital in climate finance — with a special emphasis on water as a key enabler of climate resilience in emerging markets.
The first webinar Unlocking Capital: Laying the Groundwork for Investable Climate Deals in the series will explore financing solutions for early-stage and market-entry climate and water infrastructure projects in emerging markets.
Participants will gain insights into:
• De-risking First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) projects
• Catalytic and blended finance models
• Use of guarantees and local currency structures
• The role of taxonomies and transition definitions, including water-sector classifications
About the Series:
- Strategic Focus: Water-related investments in emerging economies.
- Real-World Solutions: Featuring insights from the GCFC Transition Dealbook, which maps friction points and proposes actionable, finance-first solutions.
