Euronext Sustainability Week 2025 recently concluded, marking a successful return of the flagship annual initiative that unites Europe’s sustainable finance ecosystem. The event, held both physically and virtually across ten Euronext locations, continued to position Euronext at the forefront of shaping sustainable, resilient, and competitive capital markets.
Originally launched in 2017 and expanded in 2023 to encompass all Euronext locations throughout Europe, the Sustainability Week has evolved into a vital platform for sharing best practices, driving innovation, and fostering dialogue on sustainable finance.
The 2025 edition of Euronext Sustainability Week responded to the urgent need for informed, transparent, and future-ready sustainable finance amidst changing regulations, economic volatility, and global uncertainties. The dynamic program featured in-person and virtual events aimed at fostering alignment, enhancing ESG practices, and supporting capital markets in addressing Europe’s long-term challenges.
The week brought together a diverse array of stakeholders, including listed companies, institutional investors, financial institutions, regulators, and ESG experts to delve into the role of capital markets in steering the transition to a sustainable economy.
Various sessions throughout the week tackled a broad spectrum of pertinent topics such as ESG regulation, renewable energy, green infrastructure, ESG bond markets, sustainable corporate governance, and the strategic importance of stewardship in assessing long-term risks and opportunities.
Insights from across Europe were showcased during the week, with 34 events held at 10 Euronext locations, gathering over 3,200 participants, 200+ investors, and 180+ speakers. Milan, for instance, hosted debates on driving growth through sustainability, while Paris and Amsterdam delved into investor strategies and ESG challenges.
