ESG & Climate

The ESG & Climate program provides an overarching framework within the summit for a series of curated sessions addressing the transformation towards a sustainable global economy.

While the appropriate use of the ESG label itself is controversially debated, the underlying environmental, social, governance, and investment challenges remain structurally and economically highly relevant, particularly in the context of rapid AI adoption, energy-security considerations, and ongoing geopolitical tensions.

The program brings together technology leaders, investors, and policymakers to examine how sustainability-driven innovation is developed, how it is financed and scaled, and how real-world impact is measured and governed.

Within this program, individual sessions focus on specific aspects of this transformation. The current flagship session, ESG Innovation, Investment & Impact, is structured around three panels covering innovation, capital formation and scaling, and impact measurement.
