In a fractured global context – marked by volatility, disruption and distrust – the pathways once relied upon to drive systemic change are shrinking and constraining progress on climate, nature-positive transitions. Into this gap, catalytic leadership is emerging as a decisive force. Realizing its full potential, however, demands a paradigm shift: impact investors, UHNWIs and philanthropy can no longer be treated as capital of last resort, summoned by business purely for de-risking. They must step forward as co-architects of the solutions themselves.
Nowhere is this shift more pressing than in Asia, where family enterprises have grown into some of the world's most consequential economic forces. Their founders are now asking how their leadership and capital can serve purpose as much as profit. To surface how to tap into this unexplored opportunity, the World Economic Forum’s Global Accelerator for Earth Action (GAEA), will convene leaders from finance, business and philanthropy to examine how catalytic action can reshape partnerships and accelerate the transformative, sustainable growth this pivotal moment demands.
