🌍 This week, all eyes are on Baku, Azerbaijan, as #COP29 kicks off and global discussions on climate change take their next critical steps. With climate impacts intensifying, it's time for nations to commit to bold climate finance goals that close the investment gap in emerging markets and developing economies. Agreeing on a new goal for international climate finance is essential for meeting the Paris climate commitments and implementing measures to adapt to rising temperatures, more extreme weather events and shocks to the global economy. At #Systemiq , we help clients accelerate the transition to net-zero and take climate action through innovative financing solutions and strategic coalitions like the Blended Finance Taskforce and Energy Transitions Commission (ETC). Together, we’re working to enhance resilience, boost adaptation, and facilitate a green transition. We'll be at #COP29Azerbaijan - do connect with the team if these topics are part of your discussions.

In a world that has crossed six out of the nine planetary boundaries, which define a safe operating space for humanity, the future is riskier than the past. This presents a significant challenge for accelerating financial flows into nature. The good news is that there is growing momentum to mobilise capital to support the scale up of sustainable agriculture practices, with innovative financing mechanisms blending public and private finance to support a transition towards regenerative practices at scale. During #COP16 , Deniz Harut , CEO of AGRI3 Fund , moderated a high-level panel of policymakers, private and public financiers, scientists, and practitioners demonstrating what’s possible on the ground, including: • Donné Slangen , Vice Minister for Nature and Fisheries, Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Nature of the Netherlands • Carolina Camacho , Head of Sustainability, Andean Cacao • Mauricio Castro Schmitz , Regenerative Agriculture Director, Latin America, at The Nature Conservancy • Andrew Johnstone, Director and Chief Executive Officer, Climate Fund Managers (CFM) • Aart Mulder , Principal Investment Officer, FMO - Dutch entrepreneurial development bank • Malcolm Starkey , Chief Innovation Officer, The Biodiversity Consultancy Ltd The panel aligned that nature-positive food and ag systems offer a major investment opportunity. But capturing this prize will not happen without coordinated cross-sector efforts to validate and scale new business models and leverage blended finance mechanisms more systematically. The hard work continues. #COP16Colombia #NatureFinance

As #COP29 approaches, all eyes will be on the Oil and Gas Decarbonisation Charter and the World Bank's methane and flaring fund. The bold commitments made at #COP28 were historic, with over 50 companies, including 29 national oil companies, pledging to achieve 0.2% methane leakage and zero routine flaring by 2030. Alongside this, the World Bank created a $255 million fund to support critical financing. One year later, progress has been slow globally. As #COP29Azerbaijan kicks off next week, we need to see concrete actions. Mark Jonathan Davis, FEI, FGS , CEO of Capterio and Senior Advisor at #Systemiq shares 5 key steps that could demonstrate real progress and show that these commitments are not just bold claims but catalysts for change.

Landscape initiatives have the potential to address systemic environmental, social and economic issues at scale. This joint paper with input from #Systemic provides an easy to follow guide focused on four core elements that underpin effective landscape initiatives and how they can be used by new or existing initiatives, supply chain companies, investors, government and reporting frameworks to assess maturity and improve effectiveness.

Last week at #COP16Colombia for Biodiversity, we had a special working session between FOLU Brazil and FOLU Colombia, our food systems coalitions. Systemiq Ltd. Brazil lead Patricia Ellen da Silva had the honor of moderating a panel on the future of regenerative agriculture in Latin America, alongside leaders such as Fabrício Muriana ( Instituto Regenera ), Karina Gonçalves David ( Instituto Brasil Orgânico ), Juliana Lopes ( Conselho Empresarial Brasileiro para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável (CEBDS) , and Roberto Silva Waack . Together, we explored how regenerative agriculture can drive environmental restoration, reduce carbon emissions, strengthen local communities, and contribute to a more resilient economy. The discussion highlighted the need for an integrated approach across Latin America, where energy transition must go hand in hand with agroecology and sustainable land use. Bioenergy, including sustainable aviation fuel, was discussed as a significant opportunity for Brazil and the region. With an agenda that brings together energy transition, sustainable agricultural production, and environmental preservation, we are working to position Brazil and Latin America as global leaders in creating a sustainable and inclusive bioeconomy, delivering both economic and environmental benefits for the entire region.

Patricia Ellen da Silva sócia da Systemiq Ltd. Brasil, teve a honra de moderar um painel sobre o futuro da agricultura regenerativa na América Latina, ao lado de líderes como Fabrício Muriana (Instituto Regenera), Karina Gonçalves David (Instituto Brasil Orgânico), Juliana Lopes (Conselho Empresarial Brasileiro para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável - CEBDS) e Roberto Silva Waack. Juntos, exploramos como a agricultura regenerativa pode impulsionar a restauração ambiental, reduzir as emissões de carbono, fortalecer as comunidades locais e contribuir para uma economia mais resiliente. A discussão destacou a importância de uma abordagem integrada em toda a América Latina, onde a transição energética deve caminhar lado a lado com a agroecologia e o uso sustentável da terra. A bioenergia, incluindo o combustível sustentável para aviação, foi mencionada como uma grande oportunidade para o Brasil e a região. Com uma agenda que une transição energética, produção agrícola sustentável e preservação ambiental, estamos trabalhando para posicionar o Brasil e a América Latina como líderes globais na criação de uma bioeconomia sustentável e inclusiva, gerando benefícios econômicos e ambientais para toda a região. #COP16 #Bioeconomia #Agroecologia #TransiçãoEnergética #FOLUBrasil

The Conduit

Our Brazil Partner Patricia Ellen da Silva represented Systemiq Ltd. at COP16 in Cali, Colombia, where she contributed to essential discussions on integrating biodiversity, bioeconomy, and climate action for a sustainable future. At the beginning of the #COP16 agenda, Patricia joined a dialogue led by Razan Al Mubarak , High-Level Climate Champions , focused on connecting biodiversity and climate finance to support the bioeconomy and nature conservation. This session offered a valuable opportunity to discuss concrete projects and engage with dedicated leaders from Brazil, Colombia, and beyond. In another key event, Patricia moderated the panel “Ensuring a Nature-Positive Future Through a Sustainable Bioeconomy,” facilitating discussions with Luiza Sidonio Rodrigues from Brazil’s Ministry of Finance. Together, they explored Brazil’s strides in ecological transformation, highlighting the critical role of bioeconomy sectors such as food production and bioenergy. The conversation underscored the importance of aligning sustainable growth with biodiversity preservation and environmental protection. Finally, Patricia participated in the dialogue “Making Peace Between Food and Nature” at the Nature Positive Initiative Pavilion. As part of the Food and Land Use Coalition (FOLU) , alongside partners like WWF and Climate Focus , this session aimed to promote the integration of food systems within biodiversity strategies, marking a significant milestone in global efforts to transform food systems. This dialogue is essential for advancing toward a bioeconomy that fosters economic development while preserving biodiversity and contributing to a fair and resilient transition to a low-carbon economy. #COP16 #bioeconomy #sustainability #sustainabledevelopment #biodiversity
