We will check your registration at the entrance. Please bring your ID.

In this session, CEOs of cutting-edge cleantech companies will share their vision of what industry, government and civil society need to do to accelerate the energy transition and how their technologies can transform the way we live, work and sustain our planet. We will hear their thoughts on the challenges and opportunities we face in the coming years and how important a global approach will be in mitigating climate change.

This will be an interactive session where we hope to provoke new approaches and ways of think about the energy transition and how global partnerships can be formed to accelerate these efforts.
