Shaping impactful carbon markets to sustain long-term demand signals

Join the essential post-COP gathering for carbon market leaders, where global policymakers, corporate trailblazers, project developers, and financial innovators converge to shape the future of carbon markets. This conference offers deep insights into the evolving policy landscape, demand signals, and investment strategies driving carbon credit markets forward. From Article 6 implementation to the rise of high-integrity standards and the business case for climate claims, the program is designed to equip you with the clarity and connections needed to navigate today’s fast-changing carbon ecosystem. Whether you are focused on compliance, voluntary, or hybrid markets — this is the definitive platform for fostering confidence, scaling ambition, and driving meaningful climate impact.

Executive conference themes
  • - Explore how Article 6 and governance standards are shaping the architecture of global carbon markets
  • - Examine how market mechanisms are evolving to balance climate ambition with affordability and innovation
  • - Showcase how corporates can build credible business cases for carbon credits that drive real sustainability impact
  • - Unpack national compliance markets to reveal the challenges and opportunities shaping global carbon markets
  • - Tackle the decarbonization of hard-to-abate sectors as they navigate trade pressures and shifting market dynamics

Strategic Zone Focus

  • - Nature and Biodiversity Zone: with the ability to link more granular data from both ground and earth observation, technologies that can connect participants across the nature value chain with the insights they need, and a rapid strengthening in the business case for biodiversity protection given its role in underpinning economic resilience, how are high-impact nature markets evolving?
  • - Carbon Accounting Zone: carbon differentiation allows market participants to assign value to the role of greenhouse gas emissions associated with an economy's goods and services. Discuss the evolution of differentiated carbon markets and how consistency in measurement and reporting can align participants' economic incentives with environmental ambitions
  • - Technology Zone: from BECCS to DAC, removal-based credits are commanding premium prices—but scaling tech solutions remains a challenge. Get front-row access to the latest innovations, funding hurdles, and policy shifts, including perspectives on 45Q, CRCF, and market integration
