⭐ Opening Conversation: The Regeneration Turn
From ESG Backlash to Real Transformation. A forward-looking conversation on how the current ESG backlash is reshaping the sustainability agenda, where real transformation is happening, and what still needs to change to move from ambition to execution.
FEATURED KEYNOTE: The Reality Check
Where the transition really stands today: a data-driven assessment of what is genuinely working, what is not, and where capital is actually flowing versus where the narrative does not match reality. A perspective from one of Europe's most respected voices on energy transition and climate finance.
KEYNOTE: EU Regulatory Update — Where We Stand and What Comes Next
An inside view on the evolution of key European regulations, including the Green Deal, CSRD and CSDDD, and how they are shaping markets, investment decisions and corporate strategies across Europe and beyond.

Pension Funds, transition risk and the limits of sustainable investing. A high-level discussion with leading pension fund executives on how capital is being deployed in the transition.
