Ep1: Reinventing Development Finance

In our inaugural episode, join hosts Sarah Devine and Rebecca Abou-Chedid for a conversation with Jamie Fergusson, director of global market and business development at International Finance Corporation (IFC), to discuss what “upstream” projects mean for IFC, the scale and objectives of this early stage project development work, and what makes it different. They also touch on project development challenges and successes in emerging markets, water supply and climate change, renewable energy and "scaling solar", the importance of partnerships, and more.
