The aim of the LAUNCH Investor Forum is to think BIG - key market players will discuss why EPC has not yet been securitized and what is needed to achieve securitization of Sustainable Energy Assets under EPC contracts.

The November 27 event will take place at the headquarters of BNP Paris Fortis in Brussels and will feature: 

NETWORKING CONFERENCE | 13:30 - 19:00 CET

  • Presentation of the LAUNCH H2020 project which aims to securitize Sustainable Energy Assets
  • Plenary session including representatives from the European Investment Bank, AFME Association for Financial Markets in Europe, Fitch Ratings, and more.
  • “Lightning raise” session – project developers, project financiers and equity capital providers will have the opportunity to pitch to each other and provide feedback in front of a live audience.

The agenda will allow ample opportunity for interactive exchange between project developers, project financiers and providers of growth capital, with a focus on discussion and problem solving. The day will end with a networking drink for participants.
