Innovate4Climate 2020 Conference Full Statement

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- In accordance with health guidance from the CDC, WHO and other health authorities, we have decided to cancel Innovate4Climate (I4C) 2020 from taking place in Barcelona, Spain on May 26-28, 2020.

This difficult decision was reached after a detailed discussion with our hosts and strategic partners with utmost priority given to protecting the health and wellbeing of I4C attendees.

We greatly appreciate the enthusiasm and interest everyone has shown towards I4C. While we are disappointed that we will not be together in-person this May, we are exploring options to provide virtual I4C online programs throughout the year. We will share additional details on our plans for I4C in the coming weeks.

Sign up here to have updates emailed to you directly. In the meantime, thank you for your patience and understanding and we look forward to seeing our global community of climate action accelerators next year at I4C 2021 from May 25-27 in Barcelona, Spain.
