<p>Quantitative finance has already fostered a vibrant knowledge
exchange between academic innovation and industry application. The
sustainable, responsible and impact investment world is still
developing similar engagement opportunities.</p>
<p>The Intentional Endowments Network has teamed with
<strong>Bloomberg LP</strong> and the <strong>ICMA Centre at the
Henley Business School at the University of Reading</strong> to design
an event that bridges emerging academic and applied approaches to ESG
integration and sustainable investment.</p>
<p>This is the third year Bloomberg LP is hosting this conference. The
event is meant to foster engagement and knowledge exchange between
researchers in both academia and industry.</p>
<p>The evening reception will also be the official launch of the New
York Chapter of “Building A Sustainable Investment Community” (BASIC).
