The Net-Zero Leadership Summit

As we undergo shared global health and environmental challenges, along with major geopolitical and economic shifts, we must look to how markets, governments, and people can forge a new and better path forward. Canadians know that we have to act with urgency to ensure the sustainability of the communities in which we live, and embrace the new opportunities that come with Canadian global leadership in the drive for a net-zero future.

On April 19, Canada 2020 will bring together leading experts and innovators from across Canada and beyond to explore the challenges and opportunities of achieving a net-zero economy. 

Join featured speakers to learn about new priorities, developments, and cutting-edge approaches in the drive toward the green transition.

Share ideas and insights, and hear from policymakers, leading advocates and innovators, cross-sector industry leaders, and experts about their visions and commitments for a sustainable, equitable, and resilient future.
