The 3rd edition of the International Carbon Markets Summit, set to take place on 29 May 2025, will bring together leading global policymakers, industry experts, and market participants to explore the latest trends, regulations, and innovations shaping the future of carbon markets, which are essential to achieve net zero, although they must evolve if they are to reach their full potential. This topical summit will serve as a platform for discussions about this evolution and how carbon markets can drive climate action, facilitate sustainable growth, and create new opportunities for businesses and investors alike.


With EVs taking a record 19.6% share of car sales in the UK last year – in the process, making the UK the largest market in Europe for electric car sales – the pressure is on to accelerate the delivery of a nationwide charging point network to meet current and anticipated demand. However, while some progress is being made with approving planning applications and obtaining connections to the grid, most charge point operators complain about the difficulties they face in extending the network. A number of critical issues need to be addressed if the government’s EV ambitions are to be realised.

Featured Testimonials

“We’ve worked with the C&F team on many conferences relating to accountability, the team here are exceptionally good at organising events. A broad and diverse mix of delegates and that’s of most interest because that’s why people come to conferences; to peer to peer network and talk, you have to have enough people of the right calibre in the room, and that’s what City & Financial do differently to other conference organisers”.
Carl Redfern, Compliance Director, Redland Business Solutions Ltd
“Interesting discussion around Brexit and the implications for the energy sector. I think it’s got a excellent range of speakers from academia, politicians as well as industry speakers, which helps getting that spread”.

“Also if you look at the delegate list, it’s great for networking to see the wide range of delegates from across the UK who are in attendance”.

Lawrence Slade, Chief Executive, Energy UK
“As ever with City week it’s a fantastic gathering of senior people from across the industry talking about the key issues that we need to deal with as practitioners looking at both where the opportunities for the industry are, what the challenges are that we need to meet, but also being able to talk to policy makers, with regulators and with others to share our experiences, our perspectives and our thoughts to look forward to the future”.
Miles Celic, Chief Executive Officer, TheCityUK
“It’s the largest Brexit conference I’ve seen for at least two years, and I think that it’s a very great mix of people; in terms of seniority and in terms of spread and geographically, because it’s not just people from London, some people are coming from outside (London)”.
Jonathan Herbst, Partner and Global Head of Financial Services, Norton Rose Fulbright
“I would like to say a massive thanks @cfconferences for pulling together so many experts for the event yesterday. Felt like the Glastonbury of Conduct with headline acts, great content and sell-out crowd. Plenty of content for us to go away and act on our journey to regain trust”.
Robert Longmuir, Client Governance, Aberdeen Standard Investments

“It’s an honour to attend this year’s Tokenisation Summit. I’d like to congratulate City and Financial Global for bringing us together here today. You’ve produced an exciting agenda and impressive cast list, across both industry and the regulatory communities.”

Tulip Siddiq, City Minister and Economic Secretary to the Treasury
