About the event
Asia sits at the center of the global sustainability transition. During Ecosperity Week 2026 in Singapore, WBCSD will convene our members with policymakers, financial institutions, and partners for a week of focused dialogue. Sessions will explore practical, business-led solutions for scaling decarbonization across value chains, mobilizing capital, and strengthening resilience and competitiveness. Topics include investing in nature, high-integrity carbon markets, regional CCS opportunities, built environment decarbonization, interoperable product carbon data through PACT, TISFD, and the responsible use of AI.
WBCSD Connect in Singapore will focus on aligning finance, data, and innovation to:
- Strengthen long-term resilience and competitiveness
- Scale decarbonization across value chains
- Mobilize capital toward high-integrity climate and nature solutions
- Integrate physical and transition risks into financial decision-making
- Enable an inclusive, people-centered transition across APAC
Through a curated series of roundtables, workshops, leadership dialogues, and public sessions, we will move from ambition to implementation — turning complexity into coordinated action.
What to expect
Across the week, discussions will focus on practical, Asia-relevant approaches to accelerating business action for the sustainability transition. The program is structured around three key priorities:
1. Scaling decarbonization through transparency and interoperable data across value chains
2. Leading just and resilient transitions through technology and people
3. Mobilizing capital for business action on climate, leveraging nature
Sessions will be grounded in WBCSD’s Corporate Performance & Accountability System and global frameworks, co-developed with members and enriched with real-world case studies from across Asia-Pacific and global markets.
