Impact Platforms for Climate, Biodiversity & Health
Through our three global impact platforms, we provide platforms for multi-sector stakeholders to build alliances and develop ambition loops for climate, biodiversity and health.
Our Impact Platforms serve as a springboard for our partners and members to drive the innovative solutions, ambitious policies and bold investments necessary for a net-zero, nature-positive and resilient future.
Global Events
Our globally renowned Summits on climate, biodiversity and health offer high-level participation and unmissable opportunities for collaboration. They provide international cross-sector dialogue on much-needed innovation & technology, policies & frameworks, and finance & investment for a faster transition to the green economy. They are linked to the relevant major UN and global convenings on climate, biodiversity and health issues.
The World Climate Foundation has been key in bringing together a huge variety of stakeholders during their Summits and to help us develop strategic opportunities while ensuring top visibility for Capgemini Invent.

Coalition Building & Partnerships
We connect key stakeholders across the fields based on their profiles. Together with our members and partners, we identify partnerships, initiatives and coalitions that can provide solutions for and foster action towards a green economy. For example, the Climate Investment Coalition acts as a primary international force in stimulating meaningful climate investments before 2030.

Climate Investment Coalition
The World Climate Foundation is one of the founding partners of the Climate Investment Coalition (CIC), an independent public-private sector initiative that convenes asset owners, asset managers, businesses and governments to work across sectors to develop investable markets for climate solutions through public-private Ambition Loops. In 2021, the CIC supported an unparalleled total collective commitment from Nordic and UK pension funds of US$130 billion to be invested in clean energy by 2030 and reported on annually.
[...] if we can raise $55 billion from Danish pension funds alone, imagine what we can achieve if more countries are to join us? That is why we decided to create the Climate Investment Coalition. We work to bring governments and institutional investors together to mobilise and accelerate investments in the green transition.

Spotlight - Jacobs
Objective
Jacobs' goal was to shift their service and solutions to build a resilient net-zero future, and to convey it to their stakeholders. For this purpose, Jacobs partnered with the World Climate Foundation to showcase their expertise on climate innovations, policy and investment on a joint podcast series called Sparks.
Result
Jacobs extended their audiences on a multitude of levels around the globe and amplified their voice at COP26 and beyond. Furthermore, the podcast became the most popular podcast Jacobs has ever produced.
Strategic Insights
To support the transition to a resilient future, we guide the development of tailored net-zero and nature-positive sector or industry pathways. We select key stakeholders and map global trends and events in sectors such as finance, energy, industry, transport, built environment, food, nature and health – while assisting members and partners to connect and share best practices across the network, galvanising further ambition and action.
It was very useful to exchange views about the role of asset management companies toward net-zero and the concrete implementation methods. As I believe that it is important to collaborate among asset management companies in the future, World Climate Summit is a very valuable place for these opportunities.
