Action builds hope.

Cities are hubs for innovation and growth, essential for driving the transition towards net zero. The vast number of buildings in our cities which we design, build and occupy have a vital role to play in decarbonising our planet.

During Glasgow's Climate Week, #COB24 will bring together global thought leaders, businesses, and cities to ignite purpose-led conversations for one common goal: accelerating action on a sustainable future. 

Action Makers at COB include:

• Will Hutton | Political Economist and Author
• Anna Campbell-Jones | Designer, Retailer and Presenter
• James Close | Head of Climate Change at NatWest Group
• Sarah Howard MBE | Chair of British Chambers of Commerce
• Nick Cochrane-Dyet | Chairman of the British Chamber of Commerce, Abu Dhabi
• Emma Howard Boyd CBE | Chair of Green Finance Institute
• Catherine McGuinness CBE | Non-Executive Director, Catapult Connected Places
