The Executive Series

The Executive Series 2025

At Climate Week NYC 2025, we curated a series of high-impact, closed-door, and invite-only roundtables and workshops at The Hub Live.

The Executive Series invited senior policymakers, business leaders, and civil society champions to gather and discuss challenges and opportunities from across the climate sphere. All roundtable and workshop sessions were held under the Chatham House rule with a limited number of the most senior-level participants.

Attendees shared their experiences, engaged in constructive dialogue, and boosted collaboration on pathways to meaningful climate progress. By focusing on candid and honest conversations, they created meaningful connections, positive outcomes, and actionable solutions to maintain the momentum needed to drive action.
