On the International Day of Peace (September 21, 2018), 5th Element Group PBC sponsored the SDG Frontier Finance Forum at the United Nations in New York. At that gathering, The SDG Impact Fund and a collaborative community (now called The SDG Circle) were announced to accelerate the path to achieving the UN’s Global Goals.
WHAT ARE THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS?
The SDGs are 17 goals agreed upon by 193 countries to realize a more sustainable and prosperous humanity and planet by 2030.
GETTING THINGS DONE TOGETHER
The SDG Circle is a flagship initiative of 5th Element Group PBC in partnership with Conveners.org and the Convening17 initiative. SDG Circle events bring together impact investors, donors and brand executives who create “traffic on the bridge” between KPI-driven performance and SDG-aligned impact.
In addition to access to some of the world’s most prestigious events, SDG Circle members receive a host of benefits customized for each member:
