The Future is Federated Action: From Global Principles to Local Coherence for an Emissions-Free Nature-Positive Society and Economy

As the move toward emissions-free, nature-positive economies accelerates, the challenge for business and finance leaders has shifted from intent to execution under volatile and fragmented conditions.

Federated action that anchors global ambition in local coherence, is emerging as a more resilient model, where trust, cultural intelligence, and place-based innovation become the new economic assets.

This approach bridges Western governance with Eastern principles of harmony, creating transition pathways that are both durable and investable. Join us to explore how global ambition can succeed when rooted in local context, and help shape new pathways for a thriving, sustainable future.

Speakers include: Kirsten Dunlop, Chief Executive Officer, Climate KIC (moderator); Eva Gladek, Founder and CEO, Metabolic; Uyunkar Domingo Peas Nampichkai, President of the Board of Directors, Amazon Sacred Headwaters Alliance, (Cuencas Sagradas Amazonicas); Ignace Beguin Billecocq, Executive Director, Mangrove Breakthrough and Co-Founder, Ambition Loop; Sumi Pasupathy, Founder, KAI Advisory Impact.

Re-norming the Global Economy: From Green Experiments to Systemic Change

This session invites us to move beyond ambition and into deep coherence. In an age of climate disruption and social fragmentation, the challenge is to re-norm how we invest, govern, and grow, so that capital, policy, innovation, and community move together.

Blending systems thinking with ancient ecological wisdom, the panel discussion will explore how values-based investment and regenerative design can turn fragmented pilots into lasting paradigms. Join us to help shape an economic architecture where planetary well-being becomes the norm, not the exception.

Speakers include: Kirsten Dunlop, Chief Executive Officer, Climate KIC (moderator); Sandrine Dixson-Declève, Honorary President, Club of Rome and Executive Chair, Earth4All; Eva Gladek, Founder and CEO, Metabolic; Jens Nielsen, Founder and CEO, World Climate Foundation; Chad Frischman, Founder and CEO, Regenerative Intelligence (RegenIntel); Mille Bojer, Co-Founder and Director, Reos Partners; Sophie Lambin, Founder and CEO, Kite Insights; Dominic Hofstetter, Executive Director, The TransCap Initiative.
