Meet BwB at the World Bank Autumn Meetings 2025: 13-18 October |Washington, D.C.

A sustainable, resilient future for the world depends on bold financial innovation, strong collaboration, and visionary leadership. At this year’s World Bank Autumn Meetings, BwB’s Rupesh Madlani, Chris Smith, and Matteo Scalabrino will be in Washington to engage with partners, policymakers, and investors on scaling transformative finance for systemic change. During the week, BwB will also host several closed-door discussions and hold the second Advisory Board Meeting of the Africa Capital Hub, advancing regional efforts to mobilise sustainable investment. “The World Bank Annual Meetings offer a vital platform for global financial leaders to collaborate in an increasingly complex world, as we collectively address growing adaptation and resilience needs,” comments Rupesh. “At BwB, we look forward to hosting a series of closed-door roundtables, including the Advisory Board meeting of our Africa Capital Hub, to strengthen shared understanding, foster collective impact, and accelerate the flow of capital to where it is needed most.” Will you be in Washington for the Autumn Meetings? Let’s connect to explore how we can accelerate positive environmental and social change through finance and investment.
