Hosted the day after the G20 Summit, this G20 lunch dialogue will provide an opportunity for business and policy leaders to discuss regional trends and how impact investing can play a role in achieving the objectives of the communique published at the conclusion of the G20 summit hosted by the Indonesian government.
Discussions focused on the three main pillars of the G20 Presidency: Global Health Architecture, Sustainable Energy Transition and Digital Transformation.
