About Event

Join us for an intimate evening at Foundation House, where fresh-from-Belém insights meet holiday cheer. We'll be joined by guests who attended COP30 to share stories from the global stage on climate action. Think cozy fireside conversations (literally in a fireplace!), followed by plenty of mingling, sipping on a signature cocktail, and nibbling on seasonal canapés as we toast to what's possible when we gather together.

It's the perfect way to wrap up the year: meaningful conversations, festive spirits, and the kind of connections that happen when you slow down and savor the moment.

Event Policies
