With the ambition to create the world’s leading forum for developing concrete public-private partnerships to deliver on the SDGs and the Paris Climate Agreement, Denmark kick-started P4G in Copenhagen in 2018. Setting the precedent for a global moment, the summit brought together Heads of State, CEOs, leaders in sustainable development and more than 800 attendees. Now, Seoul will unite leading decision makers to mobilize investments for transformative partnerships delivering tangible SDG and climate action impact. Leading up the main event on 30-31 May, a week of engaging talks and discussions is set to spur action and new partnerships. Denmark invites you to join the dialogue.
