Climate Week NYC takes place every year in partnership with the United Nations General Assembly and is run in coordination with the United Nations and the City of New York.

Each year, business leaders, political change makers, local decision takers and civil society representatives of all ages and backgrounds, from all over the world, gather to drive the transition, speed up progress, and champion change that is already happening.

Businesses all over the world are innovating and collaborating in new ways to help the world get closer to net zero. Distinguished speakers from a variety of economic sectors will propose innovative ideas and strategies for shifting the balance in favor of a Better Planet.
