Festa,
The Circularity Cluster and the
Icelandic Ocean Cluster invite you to a joint event on may 14th, 09:00AM-11:00AM.
Note - this event is open and free for everyone.
The event is intended for entrepreneurs, investors, and other interested parties who wish to dive deeper into the discussion on sustainability-related investments. Our goal is to examine whether and how investors weigh and consider sustainability in their decision-making and whether their focus is more on financial gain rather than on sustainability ♻️
With a particular emphasis on the Icelandic context and the Blue Economy, the event will seek answers to whether it is possible to increase investors' interest in sustainable investments.
