Net Zero Economy Forum: Accelerating the transition

Net Zero Economy Forum organized by Capital aims to be the most robust local platform for ideas exchanging between the government and business leaders, public experts and investors, enabling a shared vision on transition and sustainable growth.

The second edition is going to be held in hybrid format, which combines both physical and virtual components. Speakers and audience can join in-person or online.

CONTEXT

The pathway to net-zero by 2050 is narrow—and the evidence shows it already possesses an enormous challenge. 

It will require organizations and governments to dedicate themselves to fundamental, system-level change. Companies around the world will have to decarbonize their operations and business portfolios, ramp up production of climate technologies, apply new measures of corporate performance, and engage in thoughtful dialogue with investors and societies.

On the other hand, these challenges create an excellent opportunity to rethink the idea of economy and prosperity and innovate the entire economic cycle.

Advantages emerge at all levels, for instance, through innovation in energy management and digitalization, which drive decarbonization and resilience.

Now we need to accelerate the extensive system and infrastructural transformation that will not bypass a single organization, city or country in the future. 

Decarbonization of the planet also has a solid geopolitical context. Europe is on the clear path towards climate neutrality in 2050, but still, hard decisions need to be made. All this will directly affect the priorities in the Bulgarian political agenda.
