Unlocking AI Opportunities for Climate Resilience

​A London Climate Action Week session on what AI-for-climate actually looks like in the field — and what it takes to scale it.

​About this event:

​While much of the conversation around AI focuses on hype, ethics, and future potential, this session is grounded in something else: real-world deployment. What it actually takes to move from promising pilots to solutions that deliver measurable impact at scale.

​During London Climate Action Week, Klarna convenes a select group of leaders, operators, and funders working at the forefront of AI for climate impact. You'll hear directly from the founders building these tools in the field — followed by an unusually candid roundtable on what it takes to move from isolated pilots to systemic impact.

​Expect a cross-section of perspectives rarely convened in one room.
