New York Climate Week takes place this year between 20-27 September.  

Held alongside the UN General Assembly, New York Climate Week provides a unique opportunity for investors to engage with policymakers, companies and market participants on the realities of delivering long-term value in a rapidly changing world.  

At a time when investors are refining their approaches to respond to evolving market and policy pressures, PRI Investor Day will convene leading experts for discussions focused on practical implementation: where capital is flowing, how stewardship is evolving, what resilience looks like in practice, and where the next opportunities and risks are emerging.  

Through PRI Investor Day and a series of partner events, we will bring together leaders from across the investment chain to share insights, challenge assumptions and explore how investors can continue to act on climate and sustainability issues in ways that are credible, commercially grounded and focused on outcomes.
