Formerly GreenReturns Summit
IVCA Climate Capital Summit 2026
Financing India’s Climate Transition
26 November 2026
The St. Regis, Mumbai
India’s climate opportunity. Capital at the centre.
India’s climate transition represents one of the country’s defining investment opportunities. Realising its full potential will require capital at scale, investable structures, policy alignment and businesses built for long-term value creation.
The IVCA Climate Capital Summit brings together the investors, institutions, businesses, policymakers and innovators shaping how capital moves into India’s climate economy. The 2026 Summit will focus on the strategies, structures and partnerships required to broaden participation, address risk and enable climate solutions to scale.
At the centre of the Summit
Five priorities frame the 2026 Summit:
01
Broadening the Capital Base
Bringing a wider set of domestic and global allocators into the climate investment conversation.
02
Returns at the Core
Examining the economics, strategies and business models capable of delivering competitive commercial returns alongside climate outcomes.
03
De-risking Climate Investments
Exploring policy frameworks, blended finance, guarantees, catalytic capital and structured solutions that can unlock larger pools of private capital.
04
Value Creation at Scale
Moving beyond funding individual solutions to building climate businesses that can scale, strengthen operating performance and create durable value.
05
Global and Domestic Capital Flows
Assessing India’s place in global climate allocations and the pathways needed to deepen domestic and international LP participation.
