Science makes it clear that policies need to enable and support businesses to align with the carbon law. The report Governing our Climate Future launched by the Global Challenges Foundation together with the Exponential Roadmap Initiative focuses on the policies and governance solutions needed to achieve this, building on the Exponential Roadmap: scaling 36 solutions to halve emissions by 2030. The policies should be purposeful and exponentially scalable.
This event will inspire and educate policymakers, business leaders and civil society in the policies and governance solutions needed to halve global emissions by 2030 and scale the 36 solutions identified.

Week 2
Monday 8 November 13.00 GMT
Investment is the #1 challenge for cities when it comes to accelerating climate action. As we move from planning into implementation after Glasgow, cities will increasingly need to secure this crucial funding for their plans to materialise.
This event, hosted by Business Sweden and organised by ClimateView will be moderated by Andrew Wilson, Global Policy Director at the International Chamber of Commerce. It will bring together key voices from the financial and tech world to discuss how to make net-zero bankable for financiers and how technology can help cities understand the full impact that shifting to low carbon alternatives has on their economy and ultimately how they can make the business case for their transition and go after the funding they need.
Speakers:
- Andrew Wilson, Global Policy Director, International Chamber of Commerce
- Johan Henningsson, SEK
- Stefan Henningsson, Nordea
- Tomer Shalit, ClimateView
