Thank you to everyone who helped make this event a success: our dedicated volunteers, our sponsor, European Climate Exchange, and most importantly, our invited panelists. We had more than 100 people attend each event. We had a lot of great feedback on the talks, and many have asked if they could access the presentations that were given.
