Climate change has become a matter of urgent concern for governments, public opinions and economies around the world. To tackle this global climate emergency, the international community has developed a broad range of responses, ranging from regulation, to technological innovation and, more recently, to financial tools and market mechanisms. Among these the first and most important is the introduction of carbon pricing – such as emissions trading schemes and carbon taxes.

In this context, the conference will present the state of play in policy developments and research on carbon pricing, CBAM, and sustainable finance. Two dozen leading international experts, academic researchers, government officials and industry representatives from Europe and Japan will share their insights and exchange views and ideas with participants.
