Harsha Saxena, CEO IICSR, Launches International Net Zero Summit 2026 — Driving Global Action for a Net Zero Future

Harsha Saxena, CEO IICSR, unveils the International Net Zero Summit 2026—bringing global leaders together to advance climate innovation.

MUMBAI, MAHARASHTRA, INDIA, October 22, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Global Leaders to Converge in Goa for the International Net Zero Summit 2026 — Accelerating Global Action on Climate, Circularity, and Sustainability
The International Institute of Corporate Sustainability and Responsibility (IICSR.com), in collaboration with the Management and Entrepreneurship and Professional Skills Council (MEPSC) — a Sector Skills Council under the Ministry of Skill Development & Entrepreneurship, Government of India — and the Goa Chamber of Commerce & Industry (GCCI), proudly announces the International Net Zero Summit (INZS) 2026, to be held from January 22 to 24, 2026, at Taj Vivanta, Goa, India. Positioned as a Global Convergence on Climate Leadership and Net Zero Innovation, the Summit will convene policymakers, business leaders, investors, researchers, and sustainability advocates to co-create practical pathways for a decarbonised global economy and resilient future.​

Why This Summit — Why Now
With global temperatures already 1.1°C above pre-industrial levels and nearly 140 countries pledging net-zero targets, the urgency to move from commitments to action is unprecedented.​
The UN Net Zero Coalition underscores that the window to secure a livable climate is rapidly closing, requiring bold collaboration, new financing mechanisms, and localised transition solutions.​
The International Net Zero Summit 2026 is positioned at this pivotal moment — bridging global dialogue with practical deployment across climate-smart industries, technology-led decarbonization, and circular economy models.
As nations struggle to balance industrial development with emission targets, INZS 2026 provides a multi-stakeholder platform to exchange scalable ideas, forge South–North partnerships, and strengthen the human capital needed for this transformation.​
