Guildhall, London Climate Action Week

About

The Climate Innovation Forum has been a flagship event of London Climate Action Week since it was founded in 2019. Run by Climate Action – the organisation behind the Innovation Zone at COP – the high-level event brings together leaders from policy, business and finance to accelerate the speed and scale of our collective efforts in driving climate action.

The Climate Innovation Forum’s mission is to help bridge the vast implementation, innovation and finance gaps to achieve a resilient and net-zero-emissions world by 2050. Taking place midway between COPs, the Forum highlights the critical role of the real economy in delivering the transition and harnessing the power of London as a leading global climate hub.

In the spirit of Mutirão, the event brings together many of the world’s most influential and innovative organisations to collectively accelerate climate solutions. Through its plenary conference programme, partner roundtables, side events and networking opportunities, the Forum acts as a critical catalyst to:

  • Demonstrate how to translate global climate commitments into tangible results 
  • Harness UK leadership and finance for global impact 
  • Share implementation pathways and champion best practices 
  • Highlight innovations and cleantech solutions to supercharge the global transition 
  • Drive momentum and connect with global leaders mid-way between COPs 
  • Break down barriers through cross-sector, cross-border collaboration. 

The Organisers

Climate Action is an independent organisation committed to facilitating collaboration to accelerate the transition to a net zero, just and sustainable world.  Established in 2007 and headquartered in London, we work in formal partnerships with multiple UN Agencies and key stakeholder groups to create and deliver high impact forums, digital content and the Climate Action Coalition.  

Our event platforms to help forge public-private partnerships, bringing together CEOs, CSOs, investors, policy makers and city leaders to scale impact and deliver real change on the ground. These include the Sustainable Innovation Forum, Climate Implementation Summit and Climate Action Innovation Zone alongside the annual UN COP meetings, the Sustainable Investment Forums in Paris and New York and the Climate Innovation Forum during London Climate Action Week.
