Bloomberg Philanthropies convened global leaders from government, business, finance, academia, and civil society for the COP30 Business and Finance Forum, a three-day dynamic series of events that will take place across São Paulo just days before COP30 in Belém.
The COP30 Business and Finance Forum centered on the COP30 Presidency’s key goals: strengthening multilateralism, accelerating the implementation of the Paris Agreement, and connecting climate to people and business. The Forum underscored the vital role of the business and finance sectors in accelerating sustainable economic solutions and mobilizing capital from both the public and private sectors, and reinforce the private sector’s commitment to advancing a more resilient and low-carbon economy.
The COP30 Business and Finance Forum and the COP30 Local Leaders Forum reflect Bloomberg Philanthropies’ longstanding commitment to convening cross-sector leaders and advancing real-world climate solutions in support of the UN Climate Agenda and COP Presidencies.
