GEF is looking ahead and ready to make a difference on the road to COP-30! The Pipeline (Valor Econômico) article highlights how we are expanding our impact, with over $1.7 billion under management and investments in areas such as energy, agribusiness, biodiversity, and urban solutions. Additionally, we are developing the "Path to COP," an agenda aimed at fostering debates and initiatives that connect investors, companies, and experts, placing Brazil at the core of the climate discussion. Our goal is to pursue solutions that enhance resilience to climate impacts without solely relying on the public sector, contributing to a more sustainable future.

At this year’s GEF Latam Annual General Meeting, we took a step back to reflect on different perspectives. A visit to a local museum sparked insightful conversations, showing us how diverse viewpoints can shape our understanding of leadership and investment. We’re grateful to our partners and investors who joined us for thoughtful discussions, portfolio updates, and a fresh take on how we approach challenges. A special thanks to our team for making it all come together. Looking forward to what we’ll build together next! #GEFCapital #GEFLatam #ClimateInvesting #Perspectives

GEF Day 2024 – Focusing on People! This week, we had the pleasure of hosting another edition of GEF Day, bringing together partners and directors from our portfolio companies. This year, the theme was all about People – fostering connections, building strong leadership, and sharing insights on how we can support talent and culture across our investments. It was a day filled with enriching conversations, inspiring ideas, and a clear vision for how we strive to continue driving value in our companies by putting people at the center of everything we do. Let’s keep this momentum going as we invest in a sustainable and prosperous future, powered by the strength of our teams! #GEFCapital #GEFLatam #GEFDay #InvestingInPeople #ClimateSolutions

Connect: To join together to provide access and communication. To associate or relate in some respect. To form a relationship or feel an affinity.    There’s a reason we chose this as the theme for our first U.S. Annual General Meeting last week. As Daniel Prawda said in his introductory remarks, “We want to provide transparency and openness as you learn more about our team, our portfolio company management, and each other.” Our team delivered on this purpose through detailed presentations by each portfolio company, intimate round table Q&A sessions, and small group activities to connect with the environment.    We are grateful to our limited partners and investors who traveled from all over the world to join us, showing their commitment to our Fund, our people, and our vision.     The dedication of our team, who worked tirelessly to put all the pieces together, was what gave us the greatest source of pride.
