The third edition of the Impact Investing Roundtable, co-organised by Temasek and CIIP, centred on Achieving Impactful Outcomes: Perspectives from the Ground. It brought together industry experts, investors, and innovators to discuss how end-user insights, catalytic partnerships, and innovative financing can drive meaningful impact. 

Held as a partner event of Ecosperity Week 2025, the Roundtable explored how impact investing creates value for end customers, including consumers and MSMEs. The programme featured panels and roundtable discussions focused on unlocking capital and advancing inclusive, sustainable solutions in Asia. 

During the Partner Showcase, fund managers highlighted how deep, on-the-ground insights are shaping long-term investment strategies. Panellists emphasised the importance of understanding beneficiary aspirations, financial resilience, and lived experiences to inform scalable and measurable solutions. The discussions underscored the role of evidence, intentionality, and integrated outcomes in driving impact. 

The event also marked the launch of CIIP’s new report, Transforming for Sustainability: Driving Impact and Value through Supply Chain Action, which calls for an ecosystem approach to help MSMEs in Southeast Asia adopt more sustainable practices. 

In closing, CIIP CEO Dawn Chan thanked participants for their insights and collaboration, noting that meaningful impact requires collective action. CIIP welcomes continued partnership from industry associations, corporates, solution providers, investors, and financial institutions to advance lasting, positive impact.
