What can you expect?

Tackling the global climate crisis is going to take all of us. At Mastercard, we are reducing our own carbon footprint and have committed to reach net-zero by 2040. In this workshop we will share how we are innovating together and creating solutions that unite our network of customers and consumers in climate action.

✅ We are localizing Mastercard’s global ESG strategy to fit our local N&B Division and are utilizing local partnership to drive global change.

✅ Two years ago, we launched Mastercard’s Sustainability Innovation Lab in Stockholm, which is a platform for innovation, collaboration, and execution of new sustainable business solutions, to accelerate the shift to the decoupled economy and enable people to thrive within planetary boundaries.

✅ Today we are focused at looking to the future and understanding how we can mobilize consumers towards sustainable consumption through encouraging mindful spending behavior. Shifting behaviors from ownership to access and from linear to circular.
