networking
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.
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.
"The Forum"
The Forum is positioned at the commercial heart of the event — a purpose-built space where investors, corporates, and climate solution providers come together across both days.
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.
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.
"the forum"
The Forum is positioned at the commercial heart of the event — a purpose-built space where investors, corporates, and climate solution providers come together across both days. Connections begin before the event opens, with attendees arranging meetings in advance through the networking app, then continuing those conversations in person throughout the Forum itself.
IN- Forum Cocktails
The In-Fourm Cocktails offer a setting for senior investors, speakers, partners and sponsors to connect post the Forum’s main program. 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 Climate Investor Forum runs a series of International Climate Investor Roundtables – these are closed-door, invitation-only discussions convening leading international fund managers, Australian superfunds, family offices, private equity, venture capital and government funding agencies. Reserved for the Forum’s most deeply engaged partners and sponsors, the Roundtable focuses on innovative finance structures, blended capital models and international co-investment opportunities, enabling participants to engage at a strategic level on the challenges and opportunities shaping climate capital deployment across APAC.
