HEC-HKUST Sustainable Finance Webinar
Biweekly online seminar series on sustainable finance and a joint physical workshop
The seminar and the workshop acts as an internal platform to expose researchers in this growing field to new ideas and findings and is targeted at active researchers in this field across Europe and Asia
The seminars run on every second Wednesday and start at 10am Paris time. We will have six seminars in the Fall, 2024
On Dec 4-5, 2023, we also organized a double-venue workshop that took place simultaneously in Paris and Hong Kong. The idea was to have a true European-Asian sustainable finance workshop, while avoiding flying across continents. Paper presentations alternated between Paris and HK
We are repeating this double venue workshop in Paris and HK on Dec 17-18, 2024:
Please reach out to Stefano Lovo, Emilio Bisetti and Alminas Žaldokas if you are interested in attending or would like to get a Zoom link for the webinar series.
