Corine Franken 2026 speakers

“Corine is Investment Director at Investing 4 Peace (I4P), which focuses on fragile states and frontier markets, investing in businesses that create jobs and strengthen local economies in markets where few investors are active.

She brings more than 17 years of impact investing experience across energy, financial institutions and infrastructure. During twelve years at FMO, the Dutch development bank, she led equity and debt investments in off-grid and distributed energy across the Sahel, West and East Africa, including first-of-their-kind power projects. She later invested at Invest-NL, co-founded Tidal, an offshore and maritime fund, and set up the ROER venture studio. At I4P she draws on this experience to source and structure investments in fragile states and frontier markets, working alongside development finance institutions and co-investors.”
