Climate Innovative Finance Policy & Regulation Systemic Change

We are living in a period of great disruption, driven by uncharted climate change, geopolitical and geoeconomic upheavals, surging AI, biotech and other technological changes, and the increasingly fragile health of nature.
We cannot be paralysed by this polycrisis. This session is about how we can harness it, and the implications for investors seeking to safeguard assets and invest profitably in a sustainable future.  

Come and explore if:
– Geoeconomic tensions could accelerate investment in clean energy, local production, and circularity;
– Climate risk to assets could spur financing for nature as protective infrastructure;
– Finance’s retreat from risky regions could enable citizen investment.
