The world is changing - and so is the way we talk about the action we need to take, the investments that are needed. These are incredibly important discussions to have. Climate Week NYC 2025 will be a platform where some of the big challenges of our time are being discussed. How to stay competitive in a changing world, how to reduce costs and swiftly unlock barriers, where to spot opportunities, and the investments in clean tech that are powering shifts. A CISL delegation will join government and leaders from the world of business, tech, academia, and civil society, united by a call to 'Power On'.
See the list of events CISL will be hosting and participating in across the week:
