Connect through the Forum’s suite of curated networking opportunities bringing together investors, corporates, policymakers and climate innovators.
Networking at the Climate Investor Forum
Curated, high-trust connections sit at the core of the Climate Investor Forum. Across exclusive dinners, invitation-only briefings, a high-energy exhibition hall and a purpose-built networking app, the Forum brings investors, corporates, policymakers and climate innovators together in environments designed to move beyond introductions — and into partnerships, capital deployment and real commercial outcomes.
At the forum
Gala Dinner
The Gala Dinner is a cornerstone of the Climate Investor Forum — an exclusive evening that brings delegates of the day together for deeper, relationship-driven engagement beyond the formal program.
In -Forum Cocktails
Hosted within the Forum’s central networking and exhibition space, the In-Forum Cocktails create a natural meeting point for delegates to connect, reconnect and deepen relationships.
Exhibition Hall
The commercial hub of the Forum — a high-traffic marketplace where presenting companies, exhibitors and capital providers connect continuously through integrated networking and catering.
Networking Event App
A purpose-built platform enabling delegates to identify priority connections, arrange one-to-one meetings and sustain engagement before, during and after the Forum.
Pre- Forum
Pre-Forum - VIP Cocktails
An invitation-only gathering for senior stakeholders and sponsors to initiate high-value conversations and align priorities ahead of the main Forum program.
Pre-Forum - International Climate Investor Roundtable
A closed-door strategic discussion convening global and domestic capital leaders to explore innovative finance structures, co-investment opportunities and capital deployment across APAC.
Gala Dinner
Taking place at the close of Day One, the Dinner marks a defining moment in the Forum program — an opportunity to step back from the intensity of the agenda and engage in deeper, relationship-driven dialogue with peers shaping the future of climate finance across Australia, APAC and beyond.
Set within the broader context of a once-in-a-generation transition to a net-zero economy, the Gala Dinner celebrates the collective momentum driving climate investment forward. It is where global perspectives meet Australian opportunity, where ambition is grounded in action, and where relationships formed in the room continue to shape capital flows, policy engagement and innovation across the climate investment ecosystem.
Networking Event App
The Climate Investor Forum Networking App is designed to maximise the commercial value of your time at the Forum — before, during and after the event. Providing early access to the delegate list, the platform enables participants to identify priority connections, arrange one-to-one meetings, and plan targeted engagement.
Newly launced in 2026, it is an essential tool for making sure you can make the right connections, accelerate outcomes and sustain momentum well beyond the Forum itself.
Exhibition Hall
The Climate Investor Forum Exhibition Hall is the commercial heart of the Forum — a deliberately designed marketplace where investors, corporates and climate solution providers converge throughout the two days. With presenting companies and exhibitors concentrated in a single, high-traffic space, the Exhibition Hall creates continuous opportunities for spontaneous conversations, targeted introductions and deal-driven engagement across the full climate investment ecosystem.
Pre-Forum VIP Cocktails
The Pre-Forum VIP Cocktails offer an invitation-only setting for senior investors, speakers, partners and sponsors to connect ahead of the Forum. Designed to spark early conversations and set the tone for the days ahead, the evening enables deeply engaged partners to build rapport, align priorities and initiate discussions that carry momentum into the main program. For high-impact sponsors, this curated gathering provides exclusive access to the Forum’s most influential participants before the wider delegate community convenes.
Investor Roundtable

The Pre-Forum International Climate Investor Roundtable series – is a closed-door, invitation-only discussion convening leading international fund managers, Australian superfunds, family offices, private equity, venture capital and government funding agencies.
