Event Details

Join AmCham China's Business Sustainability Committee for a dynamic and insightful roundtable discussion on the morning of December 6!


The 29th Conference of Parties (COP29) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) concluded on November 23, 2024, in Baku, Azerbaijan. Known as the "Climate Finance COP," this landmark summit saw developed nations pledge to mobilize at least $300 billion annually by 2035 to support climate action in developing countries—a significant step forward, though calls for greater ambition persist. Hear directly from sustainability leaders from leading think tanks and NGOs who participated in COP29 as they share their firsthand insights, unpack the outcomes, and explore their implications for business leaders navigating an evolving climate agenda.
