Emerging Economies Climate Report 2023 Launch event
Description
Join us for an exclusive in-person event launching of British International Investment's Emerging Economies Climate Report 2023 at our London office.
The report, now in its third year, explores how the climate emergency is affecting companies in emerging economies, how they are responding, and how investors can better support companies as we move together to a greener future. The report includes the findings from a survey of senior executives working across our portfolio of companies and funds, providing an annual source of insights and data.
During the event, the expert panel will delve into the latest findings and insights, and explore how to address climate risks and maximise climate opportunities in emerging economies.
This event is being delivered in partnership with the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment and BII.
Please note: For those of you outside of the UK, there will be a livestream available. If you want to join online please email [email protected] and they will share the link with you ahead of the event.
