What does COP30 have to do with Climate Tech Products?

COP30 — the 30th UN Climate Change Conference — will take place in Belém, Brazil from 10–21 November 2025. This milestone COP marks the shift from planning to implementation of the Paris Agreement. Key outcomes are expected around strengthening national climate targets for 2035, scaling finance for adaptation and loss & damage, accelerating the energy transition, and protecting tropical forests and nature-based solutions.

Join us for the next Climate Product Circle gathering — a COP30 Special Edition — bringing together product leaders to explore:

• How have COP negotiations evolved, and how do they shape climate tech product development?
• How are companies and product leaders participating in or observing COP?
• What signals, opportunities, and uncertainties are emerging for climate product strategy?
