Event Description
IIGCC is partnering with the World Climate Foundation for this year's World Climate Summit.
For more than fifteen years, the World Climate Summit has convened leaders at critical moments in the global climate and nature agenda, bringing together decision-makers from business, finance, government and civil society to translate ambition into action.
For the sixth consecutive year, the World Climate Foundation returns to New York during UN General Assembly 81 and Climate Week NYC. As part of WCF Impact Week and its global roadmap from capital mobilisation to the scaling of proven solutions, World Climate Summit: New York 2026 will build momentum towards COP17 and COP31.
Against a backdrop of shifting geopolitical priorities and a historic triple-COP year, the Summit will focus on mobilising capital, scaling proven solutions and strengthening the market, policy and investment conditions required for sustainable growth. Across the week, strategic sessions, roundtables, coalition activations and announcements will bring leaders together to set priorities, forge partnerships and accelerate action towards COP31, COP17 and beyond.
