Make the case. Drive the action. Keep the seat.
Sustainability leaders are navigating one of the most unstable operating environments in the function's history. Regulatory certainty is weakening, geopolitical pressure is rising, consumer priorities are shifting and budgets are tightening.
As sustainability loses its automatic support, survival will depend on whether it can be defended internally, funded credibly and deliver results under commercial and political pressure. On 20–21 October in London, Sustainability Europe 2026 brings together 400+ of Europe's most senior sustainability, finance and procurement leaders to do the work that doesn't happen in public.
- The function that survives won't be the best reporter — it will be the one that anticipates risk, protects value and proves it to the board, the CFO and the business units that control the levers of change.
- The conversations that matter aren't happening in public — on rebuilding the business case, holding a credible regulatory position as Omnibus rewrites the scope, and turning Scope 3 data into decisions rather than disclosures.
- The room is built for that work — 60% C-suite, 66% returning participants, strictly limited vendor presence, and a speaker pledge that guarantees candour over soundbites.
How the two days work
BUDDY GROUPS
Connect with peers navigating the same challenges from the opening session, so the conversations that matter begin before the first keynote.
TACTICAL TAKEAWAY WORKSHOPS
Small-group working sessions designed to move from problem to framework. Leave with something you can use on Monday morning.
PEER LEARNING ROUNDTABLES
Eight to twelve leaders. One table. One challenge. The focused, candid exchange that doesn't happen on a main stage.
