In a world of 1.5°C or 2°C scenarios, mitigation keeps you in the game, but adaptation may decide who wins it.
In the face of climate change, companies must navigate the balance between mitigation and adaptation in their transition strategies. As they plan for the future, we want to look at whether adaptation is a better commercial driver than mitigation.
Our opening session will assess how leading companies are incorporating adaptation into their management strategies, weighing the risks and opportunities in building long-term resilience and securing competitive advantage:
- Why are adaptation investments becoming key profit drivers in vulnerable supply chains?
- How are leading companies using climate modelling to justify adaptation spend with measurable returns in reduced disruptions and new market opportunities?
- Avoid the "maladaptation" trap: Lessons from failures where short-term fixes increased long-term vulnerability
