The Amplifier 2026-27

     

    Now in its 3rd edition, the Amplifier is launching three new thematic tracks in 2026-27, with a focus on supporting the growth of impact-oriented ventures in Asia and beyond. Co-developed by Capital Innovation for Impact (CIIP) and the Philanthropy Asia Alliance (PAA), the Amplifier brings together a network of philanthropists, investors, industry practitioners, and global standard setters who prioritise collaboration to help impact startups cross the so-called ‘valley of death’.
