UpLink 2 Year Celebration - UpLink: two years of innovation, sustainability and impact - English

According to the latest edition of the World Economic Forum's Global Risk Report, the top 3 perceived risks faced by the world today are environmental. Meanwhile, as John Kerry, US Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, said during #COP26 Live, 50% of the carbon emission reductions needed to reach net-zero will come from technologies that are yet to be invented. Many of the solutions needed for a just transition to a net-zero economy will come from entrepreneurs whose businesses are not just motivated by profit, but the desire to protect and restore our planet. Since its launch two years ago, UpLink has been at the forefront of an entrepreneur revolution, identifying and enabling more than 200 Top Innovators across more than 10 SDG areas, supporting their efforts to scale and accelerate their impact. Join this session to hear from the founders of UpLink – Klaus Schwab, Marc Benioff and Punit Renjen – about the next phase of UpLink’s trajectory, to meet UpLink’s latest cohort of Top Innovators from the Climate Justice challenge and to launch a call for Mental Health solutions run in collaboration with UNICEF.
