An Evening for Climate Leaders Shaping the Next Decade
Climeworks and BSR invite you to an executive‑level gathering during San Francisco Climate Week: the Climate Executives Dinner: 2030 on the Horizon, taking place on April 21, 2026, from 7:00 PM–10:00 PM in San Francisco near Fisherman’s Wharf.
This private dinner convenes 25 sustainability leaders for an intimate, solution-oriented conversation on what the next four years must deliver to meaningfully advance the critical wave of 2030 climate goals.
2030 is no longer a distant target; it’s a four‑year sprint. The evening centers on the massive shift already underway: scaling high‑integrity carbon removal, navigating policy realignments, and accelerating the systemic breakthroughs that will define the next decade. Together, we will bridge the gap between today’s policy landscape and tomorrow’s operational reality, exploring how the alliances we form now will safeguard both our climate and our markets for decades to come.
Join us as we shape the decade ahead, aligning on what’s needed, sharing our visions, and strengthening the collective momentum required to achieve our shared climate ambitions.
