We’re joined on this episode by by Hossam Allam, Managing Partner at the Climate Resilience Fund, which is focused on climate projects in Africa. Hossam began his career as an environmental engineer at Shell, and working for his family’s construction business in Egypt before making the shift to becoming a full-time investor. We talk about the funding instruments in the climate space, and his experience attending COP27 in Egypt as we gear up to COP28 in the UAE this year.

This is part of our special series, Climate Leaders - Rising up to COP28. We’re sharing inspiring stories of sustainability leaders and climate champions, driving impact from our region to the world.
