Bloomberg's Sustainable Business Summits bring together C-suite executives, influential investors, and innovative thought leaders to discuss how companies are using sustainability as a driver of business value. The summits leverage Bloomberg’s unrivaled business and markets expertise to convene conversations on the risks and opportunities around sustainability for corporate executives and innovative investors.
In 2018, Bloomberg returns to Canada for the third annual Sustainable Business Summit: Toronto to explore critical issues, including:
• How a low-carbon economy will transform the nation’s energy systems
• How Canada is leveraging green bonds to finance infrastructure projects
• How sustainable agriculture is transforming the way we eat
• How First Nation leaders are collaborating with industry and government to achieve climate goals and create economic opportunity
