Investing in the Future of Resilience | Davos 2026
📍Davos, Switzerland | January 2026
TTI x yeswetrust at Davos 2026
At Davos this year, one message stood out: Resilience is not optional. It’s a strategic investment.
Top Tier Impact (TTI), in partnership with yeswetrust, convened a focused group of investors, founders, experts, and system leaders for a full-day session on Investing in the Future of Resilience at the House of Trust.
We brought together key players working across land, ocean, economy, and people — sectors deeply exposed to risk, yet full of opportunity for long-term value creation.
From Dialogue to Deployment: Impact Day in the Sertig Valley
At the center of the gathering was one critical question:
How do we invest in resilience as a competitive edge in a volatile world?
The conversations were sharp, grounded, and results-oriented — covering:
Regenerative real estate
Coastal resilience and the blue economy
Capital flows, risk pricing, and market design
Leadership and mental resilience to anchor system change
Nature as Infrastructure: Land & Ocean Sessions
Alessa Berg opened the afternoon with a keynote, "The Resilience Decade," framing resilience not as a cost center, but as a growth strategy and systems play.
We then hosted two core panels:
Land & Nature as Infrastructure: exploring soil health, biodiversity, water systems, and regenerative agriculture as financial and societal assets.
Ocean & the Blue Economy: highlighting marine innovation, coastal infrastructure, and ocean systems as pillars of climate adaptation.
Across both, one thing was clear:
Nature is no longer a side note. It’s core infrastructure.
Financing Resilience at Scale: Economy & People
Evening sessions moved from assets to enablers:
Resilience Finance & Market Design: How we structure capital to unlock long-term value
Community & Human Resilience: Why no transition works without people — and what leadership must look like today
One powerful line came from Tatiana Antonelli Abella (Goumbook):
“Healthy soils, thriving oceans, resilient communities — these are not externalities. They are investable assets. Impact capital must recognize that regeneration is the smartest allocation of our time.”
Nature is no longer a side note. It’s core infrastructure.
We’re grateful to the builders, funders, and ecosystem partners shaping what’s next, including:
Juergen Roider – building robotics and giga kelp farms for ocean clean-up
Refael Detoledo – turning legacy phosphate into food security
Alex Zagrebelny, Marc Buckley & Dina Baenninger (Eywa) – designing the future of regenerative living
Marcos Bulacio – converting plastic waste and CO₂ into circular eyewear
Ori Shaashua (Gigablue) & Chris Desai (Uocean) – restoring ocean ecosystems
Dereck Hoogenkamp & Floor van Boxtel (RiseUp) – bringing Koh Phangan’s regenerative resorts to life
Davos 2026 in Global Context
While the World Economic Forum gathered 3,000 leaders around the theme A Spirit of Dialogue, our focus was clear:
From ideas to deployment. From strategy to action.
What Comes Next
This wasn’t a one-day event. It was a trigger point.
What’s next in motion:
Curated investor deal pathways
Cross-sector collaborations and corporate pilots
New regenerative finance structures rolling out in 2026
At TTI, we don’t separate land, ocean, capital, and culture, we invest in the system as a whole.
Because real resilience comes when you back all of it. Together.
