Climate Group Asia Action Summit 2025
8 May, 2025
Back for its second year, the Climate Group Asia Action Summit returned to Singapore this May, in partnership with Ecosperity Week 2025.
We convened our unique networks and experts to tackle the challenges and opportunities of Asia’s transition to net zero. Together, we fostered collaboration and defined pathways for bolder climate action across Asia.
What is the Asia Action Summit?
Climate Group hosted this full-day event to spotlight Asia’s climate leadership. Bringing together business leaders, policymakers and decision makers, the Asia Action Summit provided a unique forum to tackle challenges, explore opportunities, and define pathways to accelerate the region's transition to net zero.
Asia is critical in the fight against climate change: it’s where the race to net zero will be won or lost in the coming years. We discussed challenges, opportunities, and solutions, drove collaboration, and identified pathways for stronger climate action.
Our goal was to accelerate this vital transition, address critical issues, and drive measurable outcomes in climate policy and business action, with attendees at the heart of the agenda.
