Seven Prominent Institutional Investors Join Clarity AI to Discuss Challenges and Opportunities in Sustainable Finance

NEW YORK CITY–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Clarity AI, the leading sustainability tech platform, recently held its inaugural Customer Advisory Board Meeting for investment managers. The event brought together prominent companies in the industry, including Lazard, Metlife, Invesco, PGIM, La Francaise, Lansforsakringar, and Santander, to discuss pressing issues related to sustainability and ESG analytics.

Led by a group of Clarity AI’s executives, including Mark Coriaty, Global Head of Solutions, Angel Agudo, VP of Product, Lorenzo Saa, Chief Sustainability Officer, and Patricia Pina, Head of Product Research & Innovation, the meeting tackled several key issues related to sustainable finance.
