The Climate and Energy Summit organised by Friends of Europe brings together an exciting mix of high-level speakers and several hundred participants – including policymakers, academics, business leaders, civil society representatives and members of the international press from Europe and beyond – to address the climate emergency, energy innovations and the role Europe can play in advancing climate action.
Taking place ahead of the eagerly anticipated COP26 in Glasgow, speakers and participants will explore where investments are most urgent and what more can be done to mobilise EU citizens. The summit will assess whether the EU remains the global frontrunner in climate action and where digital innovations can help speed up the decarbonisation of society.
EIT Climate-KIC CEO Kirsten Dunlop will join the debate ‘Energy in the digital age: towards an energy-efficient Europe’ , taking place from 11:15 to 12:00 CEST.
