Building Portfolios with Impact: A Workshop on Creating and Managing Impact Investment Strategies

Jointly offered by CUHK Business School and The Hong Kong Jockey Club Programme on Social Innovation (partnership between The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust, The University of Chicago, and The University of Chicago Booth School of Business), a two-day executive education course that provides investment professionals with the skills to evaluate the investment characteristics of social ventures and build impactful investment portfolios.

The coursework and case studies cover various topics such as impact investments, due diligence, deal structuring, portfolio construction, and impact measurement. Attendees will learn how to write an investment proposal and to prepare a business pitch with Hong Kong social enterprises, subsequently working in groups to conduct analyses and presenting investment recommendations to a mock investment committee made up of institutional investors. Through participation in lectures, case studies, and collaborative hands-on experience, attendees will leave with the frameworks, skills, and networks necessary to begin making impact investments.
