The road to COP30 - private sector mobilization for climate action" is a high-level event designed to showcase and accelerate the private sector's critical role in addressing climate change. 

Taking place two weeks before COP30 and in parallel with the France-Brazil 2025 season, this forum will bring together major French and Brazilian corporations, influential NGOs, and representatives from both governments. The event's central purpose is to move beyond mere pledges by highlighting tangible, innovative climate solutions being implemented by the private sector. Through collaborative dialogue, the event aims to foster new public-private partnerships and ensure that private sector contributions are directly aligned with the goals of the upcoming COP. 

This event underscores that, now more than ever, COP30 will be a "COP of action," and that a successful outcome is impossible without the full mobilization of the global business community.
