🌟 Exciting News from Our Team! 🌟 We are pleased to announce our new name: Capital Continuum Advisers. This name reflects our commitment to illustrating the dynamic evolution of projects and industries within the financial landscape. The Capital Continuum describes how initiatives transition from high-risk, capital-constrained phases, often associated with elevated costs, to a stage of reduced risk, enhanced value, and greater access to commercial and institutional capital. Early-stage investments typically rely on grants, whether in research environments or community transformations, eventually evolving into venture capital, equity, public finance, and debt in the later stages. To mobilize the estimated $7 trillion needed to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and ensure we keep global warming at a liveable level, it is imperative that we attract private capital swiftly. The Capital Continuum framework empowers us to better align opportunity with risk, while clearly identifying critical gaps within the system. At Capital Continuum Advisers, we tackle these pressing challenges by focusing on Sustainable Infrastructure across diverse landscapes. Our initiatives extend from natural infrastructure solutions, including reforestation, mangrove restoration, and regenerative agriculture, to the green built environment, encompassing affordable housing, smart water urban infrastructure, and renewable energy. This strategic approach enables us to diversify our revenue strategies while addressing essential natural and societal needs. By considering climate finance requirements related to nature-based solutions and sustainable infrastructure, we have pinpointed numerous critical market gaps. We are unwavering in our dedication to addressing these gaps through designing innovative investment solutions and providing tailored advisory services for investors and funds committed to supporting the Global South. At the core of our operations is an enduring commitment to integrity. By bringing innovative climate solutions to our investor and advisory partners throughout the Capital Continuum, we aim to transform climate finance and structure $1 billion for transformational, high-impact investments in nature and sustainable infrastructure by 2030. Join us on this transformative journey as we navigate the future of climate finance together! 🌍💚 #CapitalContinuum #SustainableInfrastructure #ClimateFinance #Investment #SustainableDevelopmentGoals #Innovation #NatureBasedSolutions Karin Berardo Edit Kiss Arthur Wace Yoshimi Higuchi Ayse Frey Clemens Ploechl Roopal Kanabar Emma L.
