The global energy landscape is changing at a crazy pace & I think y’all are just chilling.

It’s time to get woke! The Reuters Global Energy Transition conference from the 25th – 26th of June 2025 stands at the helm of this change. As we look ahead to 2025, the need to balance secure, affordable energy with a shift towards a low-carbon economy has never been more needed.

What is the whole thing about?

This event is going to bring people from across the energy, industrial, and financial sectors together to tackle what can only be described as an existential challenge (Not to be confused with existential dread). What’s very interesting about everyone involved is we are all interlinked when you consider energy. The conference will be used as a crucial platform for industry giants to recalibrate their strategies, forge new alliances, and capitalise on the immense opportunities presented by the energy transition.

With trillions of dollars at stake, the race is on to mobilise green capital and deploy clean technologies at scale. Companies that move quickly to leverage policy incentives and secure investments in sustainable solutions are set to reap significant rewards. The transition isn’t just an environmental imperative but a major business opportunity.

The conference agenda reflects the complexity of the challenge, covering topics from innovative financing models to cutting-edge clean technologies. It’s a testament to the event’s importance that it attracts world-leading executives seeking solutions to their most pressing challenges.

One of the key themes emerging is the shift from linear to circular economic models. As highlighted by an IKEA representative, this transition requires a fundamental transformation in how businesses operate, moving from resource consumption to regeneration. This perspective underscores the collective nature of the sustainable future we must build.

What do we need to do?

The Global Energy Transition event recognises that no single entity can solve these challenges alone. It emphasises the need for cross-sector collaboration, bringing together diverse stakeholders to share insights, forge partnerships, and drive innovation.

As we approach 2025, the message is clear: the energy transition is not just a global effort but a critical business imperative. If you fail to adapt, you risk being left behind in a rapidly evolving industry landscape. 

Would you attend this conference?? Or at least read the report ??
