Unlocking Brazil’s Green Industrial Potential

With nearly 90% of its electricity sourced from renewables and leadership in biofuels, Brazil stands out as a green energy powerhouse. Its low-carbon industrial base and rich natural capital position it to become a global provider of clean industrial products and climate solutions—just as the world seeks to decarbonize supply chains and scale sustainable growth.

But unlocking this potential requires bold action. Ahead of COP30, how can Brazil strengthen existing industries while building new green ecosystems? What policy frameworks, financing mechanisms, and partnerships are essential to drive innovation, create jobs, and maintain competitiveness in an uncertain global economy?

Hosted by the Financial Times in collaboration with the Confederação Nacional da Indústria (CNI), this high-level breakfast will convene leaders from business, government, and finance to explore how Brazil can scale its green economy and cement its climate leadership on the world stage.
