Nature underpins economic activity—from productive land and water access to climate resilience and supply-chain security—yet much of its value remains outside financial models and capital allocation decisions. New tools, from natural capital accounting and geospatial data to frameworks such as TNFD, can help make that value increasingly measurable.

This session explores how recognizing nature as an asset can unlock investment at scale. Through a rotating panel debate on key questions, followed by moderated roundtable discussions, we will examine where natural assets are already generating measurable financial value, what it takes to build investable revenue models, why investment has struggled to scale, and where collective action can accelerate progress. The session will end with a networking lunch.
