European business networks are actively pursuing climate ambition, recognizing the economic, social, and environmental benefits of transitioning to a climate-neutral, sustainable Europe. A recent event convened these networks with policymakers to discuss how businesses can advance Europe’s climate neutrality and the "Fit for 55" package, especially amidst the energy challenges from the Ukraine war and RePowerEU.

Speakers presented business-led solutions to scale renewable energy, boost efficiency, accelerate industrial decarbonization, and stimulate green investments. Discussions focused on policies empowering businesses to address the climate and energy crisis while enhancing the EU’s sustainable competitiveness. Chaired by Ursula Woodburn of CLG Europe, the event featured key policymakers and business leaders.
