On July 14, 2026, the New York community hosted Investing Through the Energy Transition, bringing together industry leaders to discuss how capital allocation is evolving beyond traditional sustainability frameworks toward investments that strengthen energy security, infrastructure resilience, and long-term economic competitiveness.
The discussion featured Thatyanne Gasparotto of Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking, Arielle Ring of SKY VC, Elena Serdyuk of New York Life Investors, and Karlien Zumpolle , with Yevgeniya (“Gene”) Levitin of Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking moderating the conversation.
The panel explored key trends shaping the energy transition, including electrification and energy sovereignty, the growing power demands created by AI and data centers, the financing challenges facing emerging technologies, and opportunities in private credit. The conversation also highlighted investment opportunities in sectors enabling the transition, including automation, enterprise technology, metals, minerals, and materials essential to electrification and digital infrastructure.
We were pleased to welcome 100 Women in Finance CEO Rehana Farrell, who joined members and guests for the discussion and networking reception.
Thank you to Natixis Corporate & Investment Banking for hosting this timely and insightful event, with special thanks to Muriel Kalifa and the WINN Americas Natixis team for their continued support and partnership.
