Richmond Finance Summit

The Richmond Finance Summit is taking place in the Beau Rivage Palace Hotel at the shores of Lake Geneva between IMD Business School and the Olympic Museum in Lausanne, Switzerland on October 4. - 5. 2018. The aim of the 11th edition of the summit is to provide delegates with an opportunity to learn, network and meet.

this conference targeting C-Level Delegates, aims to provide participants with the opportunity to learn from industry experts and from each other within the best conference experience available. Following the brochure of the event organizers, Richmond Events, the forum offers a network of peers facing similar challenges that are addressed at discussion sessions, over meals or a drink. The Finance Forum also gives its delegates a platform to discuss new technologies and strategies when meeting innovative suppliers during pre-scheduled and agreed one-to-one meetings.

The HMC is very much welcoming the invitation to participate and contribute to the 2018 Finance Forum with a Discussion Group session on Impact Investing that will offer room for reflection on the role of the financial services sector in society in general, and, more specifically, how impact investing can be a catalyst of purpose driven financial services offers.
