The Finance & Investment Stage is where capital meets climate action. Taking place at Excel London on 23-24 June 2026, this flagship stage at Reset Connect London brings together investors, banks, asset managers, corporate finance leaders and innovators to explore how finance can drive the transition to a low-carbon, nature-positive economy.
Mobilising capital to accelerate the low-carbon transition
With shifting regulations, emerging risks and growing stakeholder expectations, the focus is on turning insight into impact. This stage examines how organisations can deploy capital responsibly, manage transition risk and unlock innovative approaches to long-term value creation.
Here's what you can expect:
- Mobilise capital for net-zero impact by understanding investment strategies that drive decarbonisation and sustainable growth
- Strengthen resilience against financial risks by navigating regulatory change, emerging market challenges and disclosure requirements
- Integrate sustainability into financial strategy by embedding ESG and impact-led principles into decision making
- Accelerate innovation through finance by leveraging emerging investment models, blended capital and cross-sector partnerships
- Drive measurable value for business and society by funding solutions that create long-term economic and environmental impact
Across two days of panels and discussions, you will gain practical insights into deploying finance to scale low-carbon solutions, mitigate risks and shape the future of responsible investment.
