The activities will take place in different areas of the city, and the two days of the Conference will take place at the Hotel Prodigy Santos Dumont (Av. Alm. Silvio de Noronha, 365 – Centro), in Rio de Janeiro, given its infrastructure and location close to the national airport from the city.

All Conference spaces are designed to promote conversations, connections, sharing experiences and best practices. On Monday, field visits will be carried out with the aim of connecting and reflecting on impact interventions in the city. On Tuesday and Wednesday, we will have presentations by keynote speakers, workshops and sessions of sharing collectives, which will also promote exchange between participants.
The Sharing Collectives are activities that bring together smaller groups of participants to discuss and exchange around a specific theme. The discussion will be facilitated through predefined questions, which will be shared with the participants. Participants will have the opportunity to find common ground and ideas for future collaborations. The designated session ‘champions’ will answer the preliminary questions (25 min). Then, the facilitator will open the discussion to all participants, using some predefined questions. The facilitator is invited to ask additional questions if he/she sees fit. Once the discussion is over, the champions and participants are invited to identify the next steps that will lead to the action’s realization.
The workshops allow participants to learn new skills, tools and methodologies from peers and professionals, in relation to non-financial support, innovative financing, forms of investment, support for ecosystems, among other topics. Each workshop will have a leader who will facilitate a session around a specific learning objective.
As recognition and thanks to our more than 160 members, on Sunday we will offer an exclusive dinner, in a place to be confirmed soon, located in the city of Rio de Janeiro.
