We are witnessing a critical moment in Slovakia, at the heart of Europe, following an unprecedented act of violence that deserves absolute condemnation. The attempted assassination of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has highlighted the increasing toxicity and polarisation within society.
As we send our best wishes to Prime Minister Fico for a full recovery, our sentiments are shared by our next Electing Impact guest, Miroslav Beblavy, CEO of the first Slovak impact fund.
Crises often reveal the true value of social impact, impact investments and impact investors, who serve as the glue holding society together by uniting diverse sources of capital around a shared vision. They work to create a better future.
Tune in to the conversation between Jana and Miroslav, as they discuss impact policy and economics in Slovakia and beyond. There is always a way out of any crisis moment, and investing for impact can be one of the solutions.
