Economist Sustainability Week Networking Breakfast: Scaling Carbon Markets in Europe

Practical takeaways and peer discussion on EU/UK carbon policy and industrial biochar

About this event

Biochar is the most in-demand carbon removal right now. Pair that with fast-moving EU policy, and your 2026 plan can change over breakfast.

Join Patch on Tuesday morning of Economist Sustainability Week for a working breakfast at InterContinental London – The O2. You’ll get a concise policy briefing from climate policy leader, Eve Tamme, followed by a practical discussion with Carbo Culture on what it takes to scale industrial biochar and what buyers should watch next.

What you’ll leave with:

The 10‑minute EU/UK policy download you actually need for the conference
A clear view of how industrial biochar projects operate, where quality risk sits, and how to secure supply
Candid conversation with your peers: share what’s working and line up meetings for the week.

This is an invite-only event with a curated guest list. Attendance will be confirmed upon approval.
