Celebrating the World Climate Investment Summit and closing the market with the World Climate Foundation

This afternoon, we welcomed the World Climate Foundation to the London Stock Exchange to celebrate The World Climate Investment Summit (WCIS) 2025 edition one of the biggest events of climate week.

The team celebrating on the balcony at LSEG during the welcome ceremony.

Co-organised by the World Climate Foundation in collaboration with LSEG, the event was a focused gathering of finance, policy, and investment leaders with the aim of mobilising capital into climate and nature, at the speed and scale required. It’s not a one-off. It’s the first step in the finance calendar that leads to New York in September and COP30 in Belém in November.

The agenda reflected where the conversation has shifted:

  • What action are leading asset owners taking to reorientate their portfolios and to achieve their stewardship objectives?
  • What will it take to scale nature investment?
  • How can sovereign and institutional capital be better aligned?
  • Where are the gaps in blended finance, and who’s building the next generation of vehicles to close them?

The Summit also brings together partners from the Climate Investment Coalition (CIC) and Nature Investment Coalition (NIC) — two initiatives focused on unlocking capital across energy, infrastructure, adaptation, and biodiversity.

Closing the market this afternoon, “World Climate Investment Summit is the first stop on the financial roadmap to COP30. With our trusted partners, we are creating the space for business resilience, investible solutions and sustainable growth to flourish. Today's Summit showed what is possible when we bring the right people together in the room — to turn ambition into action.”
