From Risk to Return on Investment: Financing the Future of Health in a Changing Climate
Session Partner
At TPC House, each day is dedicated to exploring a critical frontier shaping the future of humanity—from regenerative economies to systems leadership and the deep code of collaboration. These dialogues are not just about ideas but about forging the partnerships and pathways that move us toward a well-being economy.
On this day, we turn our focus to the intersection of climate and health. As climate change redefines the foundations of our health and economic systems—through extreme heat, shifting disease patterns, and mounting resource pressures—the call for urgent innovation and strategic investment grows ever louder.
This session convened by Bayer brings together leaders in business and finance to explore how future-ready research and development, sustainable medicines, and climate-health literacy can catalyse adaptive health systems. Together, we will examine how this shift unlocks new opportunities for productivity, resilience, and human well-being.
Panel 1: Resilient by Design: Harnessing Innovation for Climate Smart Solutions (30 min)
If your products aren’t built for a climate‑altered world, you’re not innovating — you’re gambling
Panel 2: Sustainability in Practice: Reducing Emissions Without Compromising Care (30 min)
What if the biggest disruption in healthcare isn’t technological at all, but the courage to redesign a system that puts people, not products, at the centre.
Panel 3: Educating for Resilience: Building Climate‑Ready Communities and Health Workforces in an Age of AI (30 mins)
A climate‑ready community or workforce isn’t a sustainability initiative; it’s a survival requirement in a world that’s already changed.
