Following the UN Secretary-General’s Climate Action Summit in New York last week, ambitions are high, but further actions are needed in terms of the climate change solutions. Now, global attention is shifting to Chile and the 25th Conference of the Parties in Santiago.

With a number of significant global announcements upping the ante for clean economy investment, this year's World Climate Summit - The Investment COP is poised to have major impact.

As WCS2019 Global Partners Capgemini Invent reflect in their Leadership Article below, technology and machine-aided insights will also play a key role in meeting international climate goals.

World Climate Summit - The Investment COP offers a platform for exactly the kind of collaboration needed to reach global climate goals.
