Asia is home to the world’s biggest population and two of the three largest carbon emitters globally. The region was also most impacted by extreme weather and climate in 2023. What we do here in the fight against climate change will determine how the world fares on our Paris Agreement scorecard.
Decarbonising an Asia with varying levels of economic development and a heavy reliance on fossil fuels necessitates thoughtful and customised solutions. With five years left to deliver on a global 45% reduction in emissions by 2030, Ecosperity Week 2025 offers a stocktake on where Asia stands in terms of meeting its 2030 decarbonisation goals, identifies strategic areas of systems-level change the region requires, explores viable pathways to 2030 could look like and makes the case for developing resource and community resilience in a world that is 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.
Discussions on 6 May will be centred on decarbonisation solutions and pathways, while finance-focused discussions will take place on 7 May, anchored by the Financing Asia’s Transition (FAST) Conference, jointly organised by BlackRock, the Monetary Authority of Singapore and Temasek.
As a convening platform, Ecosperity Week will also feature a line-up of other thematically aligned events by like-minded partners in the afternoons. These breakout sessions may take the form of panels, roundtables, workshops and pitch sessions, and provide opportunities for more in-depth dialogue and networking.
The Ecosperity Action Hub will make a comeback at Ecosperity Week 2025, interspersed between and after the main plenary sessions, providing an additional platform for businesses and organisations to showcase tangible sustainability-oriented initiatives and opportunities, complementary to the main plenary sessions.

The three-day event convened global business leaders, policy-makers, investors and civil society across industries to discuss concrete actions needed to zero in on common ground for decarbonisation, integrate nature-positivity, and to crowd in capital for sustainable growth in Asia.
