The New Energy Order: Power, Policy & Capital in a Changing World
The Global Energy Summit brings together academic and business leaders to debate sustainability and the future of energy. Over one day, investors, operators, policymakers and students explore how capital, technology and regulation are reshaping the global energy system.
Whether you are a seasoned professional in the sector or a graduate looking to enter the energy industry, you will leave with insights and connections that matter.
A full day of panel debates on the forces reshaping energy, from AI-driven power demand to the capital needed to fund the system.
Grid operators, policymakers, founders, industrial players and investors on the same stage.
Connect with practitioners, recruiters and peers from the LBS community and beyond.
Power, policy and capital are being redrawn at the same time. Five panels examine where the energy system is heading and what it will take to get there.
AI, hyperscale data centres and digital infrastructure are driving an unprecedented demand shock. Grid operators, hyperscalers, infrastructure builders and investors ask whether the energy system can keep pace with a demand curve accelerating faster than policy can respond.
With Russian gas phased out, nuclear back on the agenda and the UK charting its own post-Brexit course, policymakers, analysts and industry debate what the UK and Europe's energy mix realistically looks like by 2035, and what it will take to get there.
Building Europe's energy hardware stack. From critical minerals and batteries to synthetic fuels and grid infrastructure, founders, investors and industrial incumbents ask whether Europe can turn world-class deep tech into industrial scale.
India, China, Latin America and Sub-Saharan Africa will drive most future energy demand growth. Voices from the emerging world explore what the transition looks like when growth, security and affordability collide.
Capital does not flow evenly. A spectrum of energy investors debates where the most compelling opportunities lie, how risk appetite is shifting, and what it will take to unlock capital at the scale the system demands.
From students considering a career in the sector to professionals in investment, utilities, consulting and policy.
LBS and partner-school students exploring energy careers.
Infrastructure, private equity and project finance professionals.
Developers, utilities, operators and technology providers.
