About the Symposium

Since its first Investing for Impact Symposium in 2013, High Water Women’s expertly curated conference evolved into a not-to-be-missed opportunity for investors and investment professionals to connect, to learn and to be visible. Following on from the success of the in-person conferences in 2023-2024, we look forward to developing the program further under the 100 Women in Finance umbrella in the coming years.

2025 Programming
The Impact Investing Symposium will return in 2025 as a series of virtual sessions, building on the features of the in-person conference – with an opening webinar session filled with thought leadership from industry experts and allocators. We will then offer two virtual breakout sessions, taking the Table Topic format attendees engaged with at the in-person conference, online. Attendees will be able to select their preferred topic sessions to participate in.
