The event features two tracks: climate technology and infrastructure. The climate tech track highlights innovative climate tech companies and startups across member countries, while the infrastructure track showcases investible sustainable projects in energy transition, transport and logistics, and waste management. Indian investors keen on exploring opportunities in partner countries are encouraged to participate, fostering collaboration and driving sustainable development across the Indo-Pacific region.
