The Maryland/DC Chapter of The Nature Conservancy and the DC Net Impact Professional Chapter (DCNI) are co-hosting a panel discussion about making your investments have an impact.

Learn how leaders from The Nature Conservancy, MicroVest Capital Management, NASDAQ, and Calvert Investments are making positive social and environmental impacts in their careers, and gain insight into how impact investing can be profitable in more than simply a financial sense.

Our panel of experts will discuss trends in the sector, challenges that they both face now and will likely face in the future, how a particular investment is deemed “impactful,” and how they got into the field. We invite you to stay afterwards to network and mingle with our panelists and learn more about their stories.

PANELISTS:
-Maheen Qureshi, Program Manager, NatureVest -- The Nature Conservancy
-Thomas Ferré, Director of Private Equity -- MicroVest
-Evan Harvey, Director of Corporate Responsibility -- NASDAQ
-Gabriel Thoumi, CFA, Senior Sustainability Analyst -- Calvert Investments
