Matchmaking for Deployment – Brazil Climate Investment Week 2026

Agenda > Matchmaking for Deployment

Following the strategic plenaries of BCIW 2026, Day 2 – Matchmaking for Deployment is designed as a closed-door working session to activate capital for Nature-based solutions (NbS) in Brazil.

This is not a standard networking event. It is a curated, focused environment that brings together institutional capital allocators, leading NbS project developers, and fund managers to catalyze strategic, investment-oriented connections.

The day is structured to move from intentional connection to execution through curated interactions, investor briefings, and structured matchmaking. Expect high-quality conversations, credible opportunities, and clear steps towards capital deployment – supported by the Capital for Climate NbS Investment Platform.

By the end of the day, participants will have:

Identified high-potential investment opportunities
Established synergistic/aligned investor-project and fund manager relationships
Defined concrete next steps towards due diligence and deployment

Completing your profile in full is essential to enable targeted, high-quality matches.

This session forms a core part of BCIW’s capital activation journey.

To participate, you must be officially registered for BCIW 2026.
