Position your firm’s expertise at the heart
of the Investing in Transition debate

Now in its 2nd year

17 June 2025
Brussels

Stepping away from rhetoric and jargon, this conference explores key issues and challenges presented by the transition to a low-carbon economy from an institutional investment, regulation and policy perspective, examining key challenges and opportunities across asset classes in a compelling day-long programme. 

IPE will also take the opportunity to reward excellence in this area thorough an informal awards presentation ceremony after the conference.

Why you should be involved

Transition Depends on Co-operation

The global transition to net zero will require an energy revolution and major capital investment. Success will depend on unprecedented co-operation between financial markets, corporates, governments and society as a whole. 

Pension Funds are Critical Actors

As long-term investors tasked with stewarding the retirement wellbeing of millions of people and with trillions in capital, pension funds are critical actors in both funding and supporting this transition. 

Senior Executives

IPE expects to attract between 50-70 senior executives from Europe’s leading pension funds and other institutional investors to the 2025 IPE Transition Conference & Awards
