Reset Connect London 2024, the leading sustainability and net-zero event and flagship event of London Climate Action Week, is designed to provide an unparalleled platform for networking, collaboration and connecting with businesses at the heart of the sustainability and net-zero ecosystem.
This year’s event will be the biggest one yet: It is expected to draw over 7,500 visitors, including more than 400 speakers, and host more than 250 exhibitors.
An Unparalleled Platform for Collaboration
This year’s extensive programme is tailored to help attendees achieve their sustainability goals, offering insights into case studies, regulatory frameworks, future trends, investment opportunities, and more. With a diverse range of topics and sessions, the event ensures that every participant can find valuable resources and connections to further their sustainability initiatives.
“Radical cross-sector collaboration is needed to achieve ambitious climate targets.”
Attendees can look forward to listening to high-profile speakers from some of the world’s leading organisations, including business leaders from CGI, Google, IBM, IKEA, KPMG, National Grid, and more. Investor companies such as Clean Growth Fund, CPP Investment, Sustainable Ventures and M&G Investment will also be represented, along with innovators like Blue Onion, Route2, Osapiens, MotherTree, Solivus, and OWL ESG.
These industry leaders will share their insights and experiences, providing invaluable guidance on how to navigate the complex landscape of sustainability and net-zero strategies.
Driving the Net-zero Agenda
Reset Connect exists to address the urgent need for actionable solutions in the face of climate change. The effects of climate change are becoming increasingly pronounced, and businesses worldwide are recognising the necessity of transitioning to sustainable models. According to the 2023 Global Risks Report by the World Economic Forum, climate action failure is identified as one of the top global risks over the next decade. This stark warning underscores the critical need for businesses to integrate sustainability into their core strategies.
Events like Reset Connect are pivotal in this transition, offering a vital platform for collaboration, innovation, and strategic planning. By bringing together key stakeholders from various sectors, Reset Connect fosters the exchange of ideas and best practices, driving the development of effective solutions to achieve net-zero goals.
“Each year there is a huge build-up to COP. But each year policymakers and business leaders come away from the event feeling disheartened. Not enough is being done to encourage collaboration, and the format of COP itself fosters exclusivity over accessibility. We’re responding by breaking down those barriers,” said Duncan Reid, CEO of Reset Connect. “Radical cross-sector collaboration is needed to achieve ambitious climate targets. But we know businesses can’t do this alone. Reset Connect London is about equipping businesses with the necessary support, connecting investors with viable proposals and creating solid, and pragmatic solutions.”
