About the Program
Ahead of the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Brazil, Bloomberg will bring together top leaders from business, finance, policy, academia and NGOs for candid discussions in Sao Paulo focused on creating solutions to support the goals set forth at COP30.
Against the backdrop of Latin America’s largest financial hub, Bloomberg Green at COP30 will explore how business and finance leaders are navigating climate risk, investing in innovation and driving real-world impact at scale.
