Building Bridges is hosting a Solutions Stage platform featuring entrepreneurs and fund managers presenting practical solutions to sustainability challenges.

Building Bridges is a joint initiative, launched in 2019 by Swiss public authorities, the finance community, the United Nations, NGOs and other international actors. It aims to accelerate the transition to a global economic model aligned with both social and environmental sustainability principles, as articulated in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). At the core of the initiative is the recognition that the scale and complexity of the sustainability transition require “building bridges” between the numerous private and public stakeholders involved. Building Bridges aims to shape the global sustainable finance agenda, through leveraging the unique ecosystem of the international Geneva and Switzerland. Our mission is to create the right conditions to optimally channel public and private capital into prosperity-generating activities, while preserving or restoring the delicate balance of our planet. The Building Bridges community meets every year around its flagship event in Geneva. All relevant decision makers and experts from the finance and corporate sectors, government, civil society, academia and sustainable development communities gather around a common agenda. This 4 day event provides a unique platform to share, learn and act, in a collective way.
