Framed by the Nature Positive for Climate Action call to action, this event will showcase leading businesses and financial firms that are charting new paths to deliver nature and climate goals through science-based targets, reporting, and analysis. Current and emerging frameworks - including TNFD, SBTN, and SBTi-FLAG - will be profiled as opportunities for companies to take integrated approaches to support the global goal of halting and reversing nature loss by 2030 and advancing delivery of net-zero commitments.

This event will showcase for the first time at a COP the number of non-state actors that are contributing to Nature Positive for Climate Action and charting new paths to deliver nature and climate goals through adoption of science-based targets, disclosure standards, transition plans and addressing deforestation risk. The discussion will also reflect regional nuances from companies from the global south, including how current and emerging tools and resources will help address and accelerate action will be platformed and regional and global leadership of businesses and financial institutions will be showcased.
