June 7 Live Web Presentation at 6PM: Investments with Lisa Kleissner

Tune into your computers and join live via webcast a discussion with OWA member and architect Lisa Kleissner as she shares how she is enabling social change and leveraging the capital markets.

Lisa is the president of the KL Felicitas Foundation, a family foundation she co-founded with her husband, Charly, in 2000.

Aligning your retirement account or other investment portfolio with your values is quite feasible today with the availability of many impact investing retail options. What is Impact Investing, why should you be interested and how you can apply it to your finances will be the topic of discussion. Lisa Kleissner will walk us through some global examples taking the concept from the abstract to the tangible. Even if you are not an investor, impact investing is an interesting use of capital that everyone should know about! In addition, Lisa will be sharing her work in India with social entrepreneurs with a focus on women.
