The DBT COP28 team has recently opened our registration for showcasing at the UK Pavilion in Dubai from 30 November-12 December 2023.
The UK Pavilion is a physical space where DBT can showcase UK private sector capabilities, export and investment opportunities in the Net Zero space through business showcases and events. COP28 will be at Expo City in Dubai this year.
What are we looking for?
We are seeking UK organisations to showcase their exportable clean and green services and products, contributing digital and/or physical assets to the UK Pavilion.
We are looking for organisations who can present outstanding, unique, or technological, market-ready innovations via engaging digital or physical assets, ready for display.
The pavilion themes this year are below and showcasing must align with these themes.
- Energy & Sector Transition: Acceleration of global sectoral decarbonisation through energy transition is critical to peak emissions early and meet the 1.5°C target. Solutions lie across renewable energy including new nuclear, intelligent grids, low carbon transport, low carbon heat and industrial and urban decarbonisation.
- Adaptation & Resilience: Successful adaptation and resilience requires an interconnected systems solution to effectively adapt to longer-term climate change and short-term extreme weather, both now and in the future. This includes a range of solutions and technologies from setting up early warning systems for extreme weather conditions, building sustainable flood defences, sustainable cooling solutions, locally led adaptation actions, and helping farmers provide resilient food systems in changing environments.
- Forests & Nature: A quarter of global emissions come from deforestation and changes in land use. We are losing carbon rich and biodiverse habitats around the world faster than ever before, putting more than 1 million species at risk of extinction, with wider risks to global food production, economic prosperity, resource security and health. Business solutions that halt and reverse forest loss and drive the implementation of the Global Biodiversity Framework through forest economics, driving sustainable supply chains, and delivering nature-based solutions are required.
- Green Finance: Private investment will be crucial to delivering net zero, building climate resilience and supporting nature’s recovery including through innovation in FinTech solutions and services, nature-based investing and voluntary carbon markets.
