The IPE Sustainability & Impact Conference & Awards is a focused one-day event bringing together pension funds, institutional investors and sustainability specialists to examine the practical investment implications of the transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy. 

A focused one-day conference
The programme combines keynote addresses, expert presentations, fireside discussions and panel sessions covering the most pressing issues facing sustainable investors. Topics span energy transition, stewardship, transition finance, defence investing, critical minerals, building decarbonisation and net-zero strategies, with a strong emphasis on practical implementation. 

Asset-owner perspectives and practical insights
Throughout the day, pension fund representatives and other institutional investors share their experiences alongside policymakers, researchers and investment specialists. This creates a forum for examining how transition objectives are being translated into investment strategies, governance frameworks and real-world capital allocation. 

Networking throughout the day
Registration coffee, dedicated networking breaks and lunch provide regular opportunities for delegates to meet, exchange views and continue conversations outside the formal sessions. For sponsors, these moments offer valuable opportunities to engage directly with senior professionals involved in sustainable and transition-focused investment. 

Awards and drinks reception
The conference concludes with the IPE Transition Awards and a drinks reception. The awards recognise pension funds and other institutional investors demonstrating leadership, innovation and measurable progress across transition management, investment, stewardship and collaboration, while the reception provides a final opportunity for delegates, speakers and sponsors to connect.
