About this event
Join us for our second IIGCC Summit on Monday 23 June 2025, sponsored by Clarity AI and Morningstar, and featuring a special virtual keynote from Al Gore, former US Vice President and a founding partner of Generation Investment Management.
Kickstart your London Climate Action Week with IIGCC. The Summit will showcase investor action towards financing the transition in a changing world. Come and join us as we dissect key issues and topics including capital mobilisation to support the transition, adaptation and resilience, and deforestation.
Curated to be practical and informative, the morning will see 10 workshops exclusively for IIGCC members, including an in-depth focus on emerging markets, sponsored by Ninety One, and another on the potential of AI.
After lunch, the afternoon will feature panel discussions on building the case for adaptation and resilience, as well as a deep dive on capital mobilisation to support the transition. This will be followed by a special virtual keynote from Al Gore, before we end the day with a drinks reception.
Expect to hear new developments, including the next iteration of the Physical Climate Risk Assessment Methodology (PCRAM) and the Climate Resilience Investment Framework (CRIF).
Join us at the IIGCC Summit as we set the scene for what’s likely to be the biggest London Climate Action Week yet.
