LCAW Breakfast: Building a credible, quality CDR strategy
High quality projects that align with your budget and goals are limited. This market reality shapes how companies need to think about their Carbon Dioxide Removal (CDR) strategy today. Companies that start building their removal strategy now are better positioned — on price, on risk, and on credibility.
This breakfast session, co-hosted by Klimate and Rainbow as part of LCAW, is for organisations serious about building a CDR strategy that holds up — now and in the future. We'll cover what quality and transparency actually look like in practice, how to assess it, and why contracting early with the right projects is one of the most effective things you can do to protect your climate commitments.
Attendees can expect to learn:
Why forward-looking procurement and early contracting matters
What rigorous due diligence looks like, and how to build it into your process
How companies are approaching CDR strategy in practice
Who should attend: ESG and climate professionals working on net zero strategies — whether you're procuring CDR for the first time or a recent buyer looking to develop your approach further.
The session includes short presentations from Klimate, Rainbow, and a practical company case from Tide, followed by Q&A and open discussion. We'll operate under Chatham House rules — so bring your real questions and experiences.
