Events and outreach channels

play a vital role in communicating with stakeholders, demonstrating thought leadership, and stimulating meaningful debate. Leveraging our broad network, strong subject matter expertise, and excellent communication abilities, we excel at crafting strategic events that influence the climate change and sustainability agenda in the UAE and wider MENA region. We conceptualize focused, actionable agendas, select and prepare speakers, identify participants, and moderate discussions.
