The World Green Economy Summit (WGES) is an initiative by the Dubai Electricity & Water Authority and is held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President Prime Minister of UAE and The Ruler of Dubai and the Dubai Supreme Council of Energy, in cooperation with World Climate Ltd and WETEX. The World Green Economy Summit remains the premier international platform for strategic partnerships and innovative solutions seeking to accelerate the transition in to the green economy. WGES 2016 is the 3rd of its event series and will be held over two days on the 5th and 6th of October 2016, at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.
WGES 2016 will remain the world’s most important meeting for green economy leaders. The new global frameworks after the Paris Agreement require the transformation of innovative projects, into practical growth-driven solutions. Moreover, the diversity and expertise of participants, will reflect the need for wide coalitions and partnerships to move into a low-carbon economy. Under the theme “Global Green Economy”, and to foster this type of collaborations, the WGES 2016 programme will include sessions like:
- Green Finance: Mobilising and Scaling
- Solar Energy: Global Leadership
- Smart, Happy & Green Cities
- Post Paris Climate Deal – Road to COP22
- Thought Leadership for the Green Economy
The Summit is organised around key sessions and the PPP Platform/Networking area with exclusively dedicated time for networking and attending workshops. Furthermore, it will include in-depth sessions on elements like sustainable consumption, sustainable production, green transport, waste, water and other specialised topics. On this and previous editions, special announcements are to be made during the day. The programme is developed in close collaboration with our partners.
