Awareness-Raising Innovation Events

The Economist's Climate Risk Summit 2019 event was hosted this past July in London, England. The event's theme was "sink or swim" and aimed to raise awareness about the reality of climate change and climate-related risks. Looking at how these risks impact businesses and infrastructures, the event brought together various stakeholders -- from industry leaders and innovators to urban officials and keynote speakers. Its main goal was to inform attendees about ways to manage this very real challenge when running an organization in today's world.

The Economist is an English weekly newspaper focusing on "world leading political and business figures" and plays host to a variety of innovation and business events that are designed to spark conversations about global issues. Its Climate Risk Summit is no exception with the 2019 event promoted in a trailer spotlighting talks with notable speakers and attendees.
