About the panel
Emerald and ERM invite you to join senior sustainability leaders to explore how climate committed companies can navigate tightening carbon markets to secure high-quality nature-based credits to meet climate and nature targets.
Panel: Carbon Credits and the Race for Integrity
Leading corporate buyers and carbon market experts will unpack how organizations are securing quality supply amid evolving standards, rising scrutiny, and shifting regulatory expectations.
We'll explore where demand is heading, gaps in supply, and how quality is increasingly reflected in pricing. Corporate practitioners will share how they are adapting to evolving procurement models, structuring long-term offtake agreements, and aligning with ICVCM and VCMI. The discussion will also highlight what it takes to build resilient portfolios that deliver measurable climate and biodiversity outcomes.
Panel Host: Emerald Technology Ventures, a leader for over 25 years in venture capital focused on sustainable industrial innovation
