VERGE | The Green Horizon: Finland’s Innovations for a Sustainable Future
In 2025, Finland stands at a crucial moment in its sustainability journey. With a legally binding commitment to reach carbon neutrality by 2035, the country is accelerating the transition across every sector — from energy to materials, mobility to urban development.
Verge | The Green Horizon brings together the entrepreneurs, researchers, corporate leaders, and policymakers who are not only asking what comes next—they’re building it.
This one-day event is designed to explore the innovations that are moving Finland and the Nordic region closer to net zero. Through thought-provoking panels, in-depth keynotes, and practical workshops, we’ll examine the real-world technologies, policy frameworks, and scalable business models that can turn climate ambition into action.
“Finland is one of the few countries in the world with a clear and achievable roadmap to carbon neutrality,” says Dr. Juha Niemelä, Director General at the Finnish Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry. “But we need collective acceleration—across public and private sectors—to get there in time.”
From advances in clean energy and electrification to breakthroughs in circular design, nature-based solutions, and AI-powered climate tools, Verge | The Green Horizon will highlight how innovation and collaboration can drive both ecological resilience and economic renewal.
This event is part of the Verge series hosted by Epicenter, a platform for conversations that move the world forward. It is designed for business leaders, founders, climate professionals, urban planners, investors, researchers, and anyone working toward a more sustainable future.
Finland has the opportunity to lead by example. Join us to explore what that leadership looks like in practice.
