Some of the world’s most influential investors and business leaders are gathering in London this week for a government-led summit intended to drum up investment in the UK’s green sector.
The line-up of attendees includes BlackRock chief executive Larry Fink, JPMorgan boss Jamie Dimon, and Barclays CEO Jes Staley. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and business secretary Kwasi Kwarteng will also be in attendance at the gathering, which takes place two weeks ahead of the UN climate change conference COP26. Of the roughly 200 people attending, 87% hail from outside the UK.
