This session will explore how capital allocators are navigating US-based climate investments in the context of shifting policy environments. With the recent passage of the OBBB providing clearer policy guidance, the discussion will focus on whether and how investment strategies are adapting in response. Panelists representing diverse perspectives across the capital allocation ecosystem, from venture investors to institutional managers, will share insights on opportunities, challenges, and the long term outlook for climate impact investing during periods of policy uncertainty.
