PRI in Person 2024 brought together over 2,000 investment professionals committed to progressing global action on responsible investment.

Three days, 35 sessions and 50 side events

Over three days in Toronto, across more than 35 conference sessions and over 50 side events, we sought to provide a platform to amplify action and support leaders and practitioners across our diverse signatory community, all while catalysing new connections and collaboration across the RI ecosystem.  

A packed programme

Over 150 expert speakers joined us across the main conference programme, to showcase industry-leading responsible investment practices and debate the impact of emerging ESG issues and global trends within rapidly evolving policy and regulatory landscapes. Many more shared their insights at side events hosted by the PRI and our community of stakeholders.  

We were honoured to open PRI in Person 2024 with a performance by The Aazhibik Singers, welcome from Ogiima Kwe Clare Sault, Chief of Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, and video address from Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak, National Chief of the Assembly of the First Nations. Their contributions, and those of Indigenous voices across the agenda, highlighted the crucial importance of Indigenous peoples at the frontline of key global sustainability challenges as rightsholders.   

The Canadian Deputy PM and Minister of Finance among keynote speakers

Highlights on the plenary stage included a keynote by Canadian Deputy PM and Minister of Finance, Chrystia Freeland, who announced plans to mandate climate disclosures for large companies and the development of a ‘Made-in-Canada’ taxonomy; signaling the government’s clear intention to foster an enabling environment for responsible investors. Later Mark Carney shared a powerful call to action for our delegates, “You are the first generation of investors to understand to include climate risks. But you are also the last generation that can do something to mitigate climate risks.” 

A range of topics

Beyond climate, the agenda covered a wide range of topics at the cutting edge of our industry, exploring themes including artificial intelligence, nature, critical minerals, geopolitics, and responsible political engagement. A focus on materiality and actionable insights saw lively conversations on subjects such as utilising sustainability to generate alpha, and harnessing the asset manager relationship, as well as asset class focused discussions centering on private markets, sovereign engagement, and infrastructure in emerging markets.
