London Climate Action Week: The Climate Innovation Forum, Wednesday 25th June
The Climate Innovation Forum returns for the seventh year as a flagship event of London Climate Action Week on Wednesday 25th June. Taking place in London’s Guildhall, this high-level event will bring together 2,000 business leaders, policy makers, investors and senior civil society representatives, to accelerate the speed and scale of our collective efforts in driving climate action.
Embracing the UK Government’s renewed climate ambitions, the Forum will be a key event to facilitate multistakeholder collaboration for increased action and impact on the Road to COP30. With 2025 marking 10 years since the adoption of the Paris Agreement and just five years until the critical deadline of 2030, it will focus on the practical steps required to keep 1.5ºC alive: unblocking delivery barriers, getting investment flowing where it’s needed, and sharing best practice that can be replicated at speed and scale.

Francesco La Camera, Director General, IRENA
Damilola Ogunbiyi, CEO and Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Sustainable Energy for All, and Co-Chair, UN-Energy.
