Panama City, Panama – SDG News is preparing for world leaders, investors, and climate innovators as they make their way to Panama City, hosts for Nature Summit 2025, a high-level event during UN Global Climate Week poised to shape the future of sustainable finance and environmental policy. Held at the intersection of biodiversity and global trade, the Summit brings together an unmatched mix of public and private sector leadership—including representatives from over 180 governments, 50+ family offices, and leading corporations driving the next wave of climate and capital convergence.
Maersk’s Decarbonization Strategy Takes the Stage
Among the most anticipated speakers is Robert Mærsk Uggla, Chairman of A.P. Møller-Mærsk, who will offer expert insights on decarbonizing maritime logistics and global supply chains. Maersk has pioneered the adoption of green methanol-fueled container vessels and continues to lead the shipping industry with science-based net-zero targets.
Maersk made headlines this week with the launch of the world’s first commercial-scale e-methanol plant in Denmark. The fuel will help power Maersk’s dual-fuel vessels, while companies like Lego and Novo Nordisk will also use the e-methanol to reduce emissions across their supply chains.
Intimate Access for Climate-Aligned Investors
The Nature Summit stands out for its direct investor access, offering private sessions with over 50 family offices focused on sustainable land use, blue carbon, regenerative agriculture, and ocean conservation. These capital allocators will meet face-to-face with government ministers, Indigenous leaders, and climate scientists to advance policy-driven investment.
