Enhance nature to help people adapt to change and disasters
Assessing feasibility and performance of solutions built on disaster risk financing and Nature-based Solutions (NbS) investments
The second Finance Innovation Festival took place on 3–5 February 2026 in Brussels, Belgium. Over three days, the Festival provided a structured space to connect policy ambition with market innovation, focusing on two critical pillars: insurance as a tool for risk transfer and resilience, and investment strategies to mobilise capital for nature-positive outcomes.
After the in-person registrations successfully closed at capacity, the Festival now welcomes online participants to join three days of high-level keynotes, expert panels, and result-oriented plenary sessions focused on unlocking insurance and investment opportunities for NbS.
