NorNAB Network for Impact Professionals

Impact professionals work in diverse roles and organizations – from general asset managers with emerging impact strategies to dedicated impact funds – but share many of the same tasks and practical challenges. They play an important role in translating impact intent into credible investment action. In doing so, they navigate complex issues such as choosing and applying relevant frameworks and metrics, refining investment processes to strengthen impact outcomes, balancing financial and impact goals, and internal and external communication. This NorNAB network provides a dedicated forum for impact practitioners to share experiences, explore practical solutions, and strengthen capabilities.

NorNAB invites impact investment professionals and specialists to the first in a new series of network discussions focused on impact investing in practice. Participation is by invitation only, to ensure high-quality, confidential and practitioner-led conversations.

The sessions are designed as closed-format and informal discussions that prioritise peer exchange and shared learning. The ambition is to create a trusted space for candid discussions about what works, what does not, and where the field is heading. The sessions will be held in Norwegian.

Topics for network discussion may include:

practical approaches to impact investment strategies
impact measurement, management and decision-making in real investment contexts
balancing financial returns, impact ambitions and risk
trade-offs, grey areas and lessons learned from practice
