BE ON STAGE

Share your expertise with the people who can act on it

The Nest Campus brings the corporate leaders, investors, founders and policymakers of New York Climate Week into one place, so a good conversation on stage can carry straight into meetings. We’re editorially driven, and every session is shaped by our content team.

Speakers receive Executive Lounge access, introductions to accredited media and a recording of their session. They also get time with the leaders in the room, which is where most of the follow-up meetings start.

This is a place where I’m meeting several executives because they’re speaking here.

Diane Brady
Executive Editorial Director, Fortune

[The Nest Campus] is more focused, it’s more technical, and it gets to the heart of the issue as opposed to other spaces where the conversation is more political, more diplomatic.

Sara Beysolow Nyanti
Minister of Foreign Affairs, Liberia

I've recommended The Nest Campus to quite a few people...it's the mix of government, civil society and private business coming together to find solutions to the climate ecological crisis.

Ryan Gellert
CEO, Patagonia

I would recommend The Nest Campus because of the conversations that are being had, the types of moderators and experts on stage, the information that they’re sharing.

Justina Nixon-Saintil, Chief Impact Officer & President, IBM
