At Amazonia Impact Ventures (AIV), we believe true impact happens when committed partners join forces to unlock opportunities in the places that need them the most.
That’s why we’re excited to share that Aldo Soto, AIV’s Co‑Founder and Managing Director, will join a panel at ImpactMinds 2025 to discuss our work in the Amazon forest. The event will take place in Medellín, Colombia, between 1st and 3rd of September.
If you are there, don’t forget to say hello to Aldo during the panel that he will join with other experts:
Facundo Etchebehere (Co‑Founder & Senior Advisor, Ambition Loop)
Mariane Salvado (Fundo de Impacto Estímulo)
Mario Burgos (Catalytic Funds Leader, CO_Plataforma)
María Ruiz Sierra (CPI, LAC Lab).
They will explore how blended finance and catalytic capital can mobilise resources towards effective, locally led climate solutions. To date, AIV has invested more than $10 million in small and medium enterprises in the Amazon forest.
The team at AIV is also constantly present in the region’s impact ecosystem, not just as an investor, but as a partner and connector. ImpactMinds 2025 is promoted by Latimpacto, with whom AIV has built a strong, long‑term connection.
Already sold out, the event will gather 220+ impact‑oriented investors in Latin America and a global network of over 1K members across the world - all working to redefine how capital is deployed for sustainable solutions.
