COP26 and Implications for Asia

Asia faces several key challenges in undertaking the net- zero transition while standing out as being more exposed to physical climate risk than other parts of the world. In this episode, we discuss that coming out of COP26, what are the main priorities and challenges in the Asia Pacific with regards to climate change, what are the different technological advances, capital investment, and behaviour change to solve the net-zero equation and how leaders can and policymakers in the region contribute to the commitments made at COP26. Join the conversation with McKinsey experts, Daniel Pacthold, Senior Partner, New York; Jonathan Woetzel, Director McKinsey Global Institute; and Rajat Gupta, Senior Partner and leader of McKinsey's Sustainability practice in Asia.

Asia's standing in the world has changed and it is clear that where the focus was once on how quickly the region would rise, the reality is now all about how Asia will lead. In the Future of Asia Podcast, we invite leaders from across the region to discuss the power, agility and ambition of Asia and to shed light on what kind of leader Asia will be, and what this means for governments and businesses everywhere.
