Returning 2026

About the Symposium

Since its first Investing for Impact Symposium in 2013, High Water Women’s expertly curated conference has grown into a must-attend gathering for investors and investment professionals. Today, under the 100 Women in Finance umbrella, the Symposium continues to convene leaders driving meaningful change through impact and sustainable investing.

Graciously hosted by Gibson Dunn, the 2026 Symposium will be a half-day, in-person conference featuring keynote speakers, dynamic panels, Table Topics, and opportunities for peer exchange.

Table Topics are a signature feature of the Symposium, offering attendees the chance to take part in multiple 30-minute small-group discussions with peers and industry experts. These interactive sessions foster deeper dialogue, practical takeaways, and new professional connections.

This year’s Symposium will bring together thought leaders and practitioners across the investment ecosystem to share strategies, explore collaboration, and highlight innovative approaches to impact portfolio building.
