On May 15, 2025, Edward Melki, Senior Investment Manager at Insure & Match Ventures, participated in a panel discussion titled “Empowering Change: Impact & ESG Integration in Investments” at the Berytech Power X Summit, held from May 13 to 15.

Moderated by ESG and Impact expert Yasser Akkaoui, the panel featured a distinguished lineup of speakers including Deniz Erkus, CFA, Aline Bussmann, and Malak Boukthir, alongside Edward Melki. The discussion offered deep insights into how environmental, social, and governance (ESG) principles, as well as impact investing, are being embedded into modern investment strategies.

Drawing on his extensive experience in venture capital and sustainable finance, Edward shared insights into how impact-focused frameworks are shaping capital allocation, risk assessment, and long-term value creation. The discussion also covered practical tools for implementing ESG metrics and highlighted opportunities for investors and entrepreneurs committed to driving positive change.

The session emphasized the growing consensus that ESG integration and impact-driven investment approaches are not only ethically necessary but also financially strategic, as global markets increasingly demand greater transparency, accountability, and sustainability.
