Speakers will include:
- Nick Robins, Professor in Practice – Sustainable Finance, Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment, London School of Economics
- Kingsmill Bond, CFA, Energy Strategist, Carbon Tracker
- Sharan Burrow, General Secretary, International Trade Union Confederation
- Rachel McEwen, Chief Sustainability Officer, SSE, member of the Scottish Government’s Just Transition Commission
- Nicola Day, Deputy Head of Rathbone Greenbank Investments.
