From the dissemination of impact investing to new social housing models
The objective of this panel is to analyze and explore if and how the growing interest in the impact investing market, in Italy and worldwide, can lead or is already leading to new social housing models, both in terms of financial instruments and of innovation of housing solutions. It is also interesting to assess whether social housing and large-scale urban regeneration activities, due to their characteristics of “fertility” and “sociality”, can constitute the ideal terrain for experimenting with new “impact” work models, becoming a place of incubation of new ideas and solutions and that cut across all involved reference sectors (e.g., services to people, environment, energy, mobility, etc.).

Financial returns and impact measurement: challenges and critical issues
Alongside more manageable technical-economic elements (such as, financial performance, the number of jobs generated by individual initiatives, etc.), there is a wide range of procedural and qualitative-quantitative variables, whose economic and social impact is less obvious. Their evaluation is of undisputed interest in the assembly of advanced social finance operations, as in the case of social bonds, which rely exclusively on a pay-for-success logic through equity investments and which, therefore, require a preliminary analysis of possible risk factors or opportunities. The objective of this theme is to share appropriate metrics and strengthen the ability to optimize the allocation of resources, calibrating the desired social and non-desired impacts, on the basis of expected social and financial returns.
