Nature Summit 2025
Panama City, Panama
19–22 May 2025
The inaugural Nature Summit 2025 will convene from 19 to 22 May 2025 at the Biomuseo in Panama City, Panama. Co-hosted by Panama’s Ministry of Environment, the PVBLIC Foundation, and Global Resilience Partners, this invitation-only event will gather 100 global leaders from government, finance, philanthropy, and industry to drive the future of the blue and green economy.
Designed to unlock sustainable investment opportunities, the summit aims to align public, private, and philanthropic capital to accelerate the transition toward a more resilient and prosperous future. Through dynamic discussions and curated networking, the event will serve as a high-impact platform for forging transformative collaborations that harness the power of nature-based solutions.
The agenda will focus on mobilizing capital for large-scale nature investments, scaling regenerative industries and carbon markets, transforming blue ports and decarbonizing shipping, developing AI and data centers powered by clean energy, accelerating circular economy innovations, and catalyzing transformative impact-driven partnerships.
Held alongside the UNFCCC's inaugural Global Climate Week, the Nature Summit represents an opportunity for multi-stakeholder collaborations to accelerate nature-based solutions for climate resilience.
The NBSAP Accelerator Partnership is a country-led initiative to accelerate the implementation of National Biodiversity Strategies and Action Plans (NBSAPs), raise their political profile, and drive collective action for nature. It is supported by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Nuclear Safety, and Consumer Protection (BMUV) through its International Climate Initiative (IKI), the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation (NORAD), through the global project “GBF Implementation,” implemented by GIZ. Its work is facilitated by a Global Coordination Unit (GCU) hosted by UNEP, UNDP and the Secretariat of the CBD.
