The R20 Austrian World Summit is a top-level summit about leadership on implementing the Paris Climate Agreement and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals organized by Arnold Schwarzenegger´s “R20 Regions of Climate Action” office in Austria. It serves as a meeting place for “action heroes” committed to sustainability and climate protection projects. The Summit will share ideas, skills and experiences through storytelling, applied practical knowledge, and cutting edge technology to inspire pioneers working toward a sustainable future.

On this occasion, our CEO, Patrick Scheurle, and our CIO, Maria Teresa Zappia, will participate to two panel discussions about why accelerating investments in green infrastructure projects at the subnational level demand better collaboration between local governments, clean tech companies and investors involved in the project development value chain. From ongoing projects in Africa to innovative financing mechanisms to support their implementation, this session will explore initiatives, strategies and instruments that are being put in place.
