Industrial decarbonisation cannot happen at the pace or scale required without innovative financing solutions. As industries seek to reduce emissions while remaining competitive, investors, banks and development finance institutions face a critical challenge: how to mobilise capital into complex, capital-intensive projects that carry new technologies, emerging business models and evolving risk profiles.
This panel explores how transition finance is evolving to meet this challenge. The discussion examines the role of blended finance, risk-sharing mechanisms and new investment structures in accelerating industrial decarbonisation, particularly across emerging markets. Speakers will share practical insights on financing first-of-a-kind projects, supporting companies on credible transition pathways, and attracting institutional capital into large-scale decarbonisation opportunities.
Hear from Tushar Kumar (Just Climate), Munib Madni (FAST-P) and Toby Campbell-Colquhoun (FirstRand) as they discuss what it will take to move transition finance beyond bespoke transactions and into mainstream deployment. Moderated by Dania Siddiqui, Investment Director at British International Investment.
Speakers
Tushar Kumar, Partner, Just Climate
Munib Madni, Chief Executive Officer, FAST-P
Toby Campbell-Colquhoun, Sustainable Finance Transactor, FirstRand
Dania Siddiqui (Moderator), Investment Director, British International Investment
