Join PUR at NYC Climate Week 2025

22 September - 26 September New York City

Join PUR for New York Climate Week 2025

New York Climate Week is one of the most important moments on the global climate calendar. Leaders from business, policy, finance, science, and civil society gather across the city to push forward the urgent transition to a more sustainable, resilient future.

At PUR, we believe this moment matters. Because tackling climate change – and protecting biodiversity – can’t happen in silos. It takes collaboration. Cross-sector action. And conversations that lead to commitments.

That’s why PUR is proud to be on the ground for Climate Week NYC, contributing to a series of events focused on the future of regenerative systems, deforestation-free supply chains, and scalable nature-based solutions.

We’re not just attending; we’re sharing our insights, elevating the conversation, and helping to connect the dots between ambition and impact.

Here’s where to find us, what we’re excited about, and why you should join the discussion.

Tuesday 23 September, 12–5PM

Regenerative Systems Summit

Nature-based solutions are scaling. But the funding isn’t flowing fast enough. The Regenerative Systems Summit brings together leaders across agriculture, finance, and technology to unlock the barriers to investment in credible, high-integrity regenerative systems.

Expect dynamic panels, interactive workshops, and real dialogue, not just theory. PUR’s Anne-Sophie Alibert will speak on Panel #2: Expanding the Aperture, contributing insight from the front lines of agroforestry and nature-positive supply chains. And PUR’s Allison Owens will speak on Panel #1: Navigating complex standards and dynamic agricultural supply chains, in which she will outline the impediments and solutions to investment related to shifting standards and dynamic agricultural supply chains.

Why this matters: If you’re working in food, carbon, biodiversity, or finance and looking to fund or implement scalable solutions, this summit will shape the next steps.

Wednesday 24 September, 10:30-11:30AM @ The Nature Hub

Putting It Into Practice: Landscape-Level Action for Climate-Resilient Commodities

As companies set SBT-FLAG targets and prepare for regulations like the EUDR, the pressure is on to address landscape level conservation and restoration. However investments can’t happen in a vacuum. This session tackles what it means for actors to work in collaboration at the landscape level, with a case study on aligning on-farm and off-farm investments with landscape-level digital MRV.

PUR’s Andrew Nobrega joins a powerhouse panel to explore the challenges and opportunities when creating sustainable commodity landscapes – so companies don’t just meet their targets, they actually strengthen their supply chain for the long term.

Why this matters: As cocoa sourcing enters new frontiers, it is fundamental that the industry rallies around building systems that are resilient, fair, and aligned with nature.

Wednesday 24 September, 1:30–2:30PM @ The Nature Hub

The Business Case for Nature Positive: Regenerative Agriculture in Action

Coffee isn’t just a morning ritual. It’s a global commodity at the center of the nature-positive transition. In this session, experts from Nespresso, Technoserve, Cornell Lab of Ornithology, and PUR break down how regenerative coffee programs are delivering measurable impact across climate, biodiversity, and farmer livelihoods.

PUR’s Kelly Gouhoury will moderate the panel, which will share recent insights from a multi-country study on the investment case for regenerative coffee for farmers and explore tangible evidence of the positive impacts of regenerative farming on nature. The panel will particularly explore how to design projects for balanced impacts and drive investment decisions in regenerative agriculture. It’s a deep dive into how regeneration can be practical, profitable, and scalable.

Why this matters: If you care about building nature-positive supply chains with proof, not just promises, this is the conversation to join.

Thursday 25 September, 8:30–9:45AM @ RegenHouse

Catalysing Scale: Lessons from Unilever’s Regenerative Agriculture Journey

What happens when a company really commits to regenerative agriculture – not just for a pilot, but for the long haul? In this invite-only session hosted by Unilever, PUR will join fellow stakeholders to explore the practical realities of scaling regenerative outcomes across the value chain.

This is a rare opportunity to unpack what’s worked, what’s been hard, and what’s needed next – from those leading the work inside major global systems.

Why this matters: Scaling regen ag requires more than ambition. It takes honesty, experimentation, and collective muscle. This session is a space to move that forward.

Want to connect in New York?

Our team will be in town throughout Climate Week. If you’re attending one of these sessions – or just want to talk regenerative systems, climate finance, or biodiversity impact – we’d love to meet.
