The event will bring together industry leaders across the investment, business, and climate communities to discuss pertinent topics including strategies to align capital with climate commitments, ways to engage with corporate issuers on decarbonization strategies, and present solutions to measure and manage climate risk and uncover opportunities.

“Private sector capital is vital to funding the development of technology and tools that will enable the energy transition,” said Elizabeth King, President of Sustainable Finance & Chief Regulatory Officer, ICE. “We look forward to welcoming thought leaders across the industry to share the ways investors, businesses, and financial markets are measuring and managing climate-related risks and discovering opportunities.”

  • Agustin Silvani, Sustainable Finance Lead, Conservation International, a non-profit environmentalist organization focused on conservation projects
  • Chandler Van Voorhis, Manager & Co-Founder, GreenTrees, a global leader in reforestation

“As countries around the world transition to carbon-neutral economies, asset managers have become more focused on providing climate-driven investment strategies,” said Jeff Gitterman, Partner, Gitterman Asset Management. “We’re excited to partner with ICE and FINTECH.TV to discuss the intersection of climate and capital and look at the strategies companies are using to gain more transparency into volatile global markets.”

“We are thrilled to be the media partner with ICE, the NYSE and Gitterman Asset Management for the Climate and Capital Conference. We’ll be livestreaming the conference on FINTECH.TV and conducting interviews from the floor of the NYSE, giving our global audience of viewers in-depth visibility to the biggest issues in climate and capital markets and a platform for conference thought leaders, companies, and innovators to share their perspectives,” said Vince Molinari, Founder and CEO of FINTECH.TV.

We offer innovative climate data and tools, social impact data, impact bond data, company and sovereign ESG data, regulatory solutions and sustainability indices.

ICE’s environmental markets, derivatives, and carbon indices are integral to valuing externalities and promoting the efficient allocation of capital across the carbon cycle.
