Join us to explore how finance and corporations can drive out commodity-driven deforestation and help reach a nature-positive future.

About this event: Nature Positive for a Net Zero Future

This is the decisive decade for humanity — we must halve emissions, reverse biodiversity loss and enhance resilience. Financial institutions and corporations play a critical role, with over 450 financial institutions and 7,000 corporations in the Race to Zero committed to net zero targets.

Nevertheless, this is not enough. We need more finance and business leaders to see nature as a critical ally in net zero delivery. Tropical deforestation linked to commodity production alone accounts for 8% of all CO2 emissions. We need collective action to halt deforestation today. Join us at this high-level event that will highlight the need and opportunities for private sector breakthroughs, action delivered and tools to reach a net zero, nature positive future.

This exclusive event will feature C-Suite leaders from business and financial institutions, including Peter Harrison, CEO of Schroders, and Jan Erik Saugestad, CEO of Storebrand Asset Management.
