What's Propelling Sustainability in 2026?

​What’s Propelling Sustainability in 2026 brings together leading practitioners to unpack the forces rapidly reshaping sustainability agendas after a year of uncertainty and change. From uncertainty around climate disclosure requirements to growing expectations around Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), updates to the GHG Protocol, particularly Scope 3, to preparing for increasing weather-related risks, organizations are navigating a far more complex and consequential landscape than even 12–18 months ago. This panel will ground participants in what’s materially different now—what regulators, customers, and investors are asking for, and how sustainability leaders are recalibrating priorities in response. 

​The panel will consider sustainability impacts on near-term and long-term business imperatives, influencing capital planning, reporting expectations, operations, and resilience strategies. Designed for executives and practitioners responsible for driving sustainability initiatives, this discussion will offer practical insights into what’s propelling action in 2026—and how organizations can stay ahead as expectations continue to evolve. 

​Panel discussion followed by networking and light refreshments.
