Conservation Finance in Practice: CPIC Blueprint Replication – Guarantee-backed Lending for Clean Textile Production
Date: April 28th, 4pm CEST (10am EDT) and April 29th, 9am CEST (3pm UTC+8)
Venue: Online
Hosted by: CPIC and the Conservation Finance Alliance
To increase deal flow in conservation, CPIC develops replicable, scalable investment “blueprints” for delivering risk-adjusted returns from specific types of investment in natural capital. Replication of business and investment models is key to leverage experience and scale impact across geographies. To date CPIC has released twelve blueprints available in a short 2 page and long format.
Speakers:
Keiron Brand
Bankable Lead

Director at Terranomics Limited
will highlight approaches on how to replicate blueprints, based on his experience developing CPIC’s Conservation Investment Blueprints Development Guide.
