Our flagship event, Carbon Forward Expo London, took place from 7-9 October 2025 and celebrated its tenth year analysing European and global compliance and voluntary carbon markets. Over three information-packed days, we brought you leading experts, thought-provoking content, trailblazing organisations, lively discussions, and innovative thinking across the compliance, voluntary, removal, and renewable energy markets.
Expo attracted attendees across the finance spectrum, as well as buyers, exchanges, insurers, project developers, industry and regulatory bodies, and government.
This year, the event was complemented by:
Start-ups for the Carbon Forward Pitch Hub
We offered start-ups the chance to promote their business to our highly engaged carbon markets audience. Selected start-ups had the opportunity to do a 5-10 minute ‘elevator’ pitch, connecting them directly with industry leaders, investors, and potential partners.
Deep Dive Workshop hosts
We offered 30-45 minute workshop slots to organisations keen to take attendees on a ‘deep dive’ regarding a specific topic or market, also allowing the presenting company to showcase its offerings.
Some workshop topics:
– An introduction to emissions trading
