Infrastructure Investor Responsible Investment Forum
In 2025, we hosted the first ever Infrastructure Investor Responsible Investment Forum, where industry leaders examined the shifting landscape of sustainable infrastructure and its alignment with global priorities such as defence, digitalisation, and energy security.
Key sessions addressed how to transform ESG backlash into investment potential, build resilience to climate risk, elevate ESG reporting standards, and unlock value through sustainability. The agenda also featured deep dives into responsible renewable energy development, the expanding role of infrastructure debt, and the evolving digital infrastructure ecosystem—including data centres of the future.
