Event Description

About this event

Liberty Global, in partnership with Formula E and other affiliate businesses, is delighted to be hosting an exciting evening in the Autoworld Museum in Brussels on 15 June, 2022.

Accelerating the journey to net-zero

At Liberty Global, we are continuously investing in innovative technologies and businesses to mitigate the global challenges on climate change and promote sustainability. We believe innovation and sustainability can go hand-in-hand and some of our recent investments, such as those in Formula E (an all-electric car racing series) or Egg (a clean energy solutions provider delivering electric vehicle charging for homes) are examples of that.

At this event, we will be discussing how innovation and connectivity are speeding up the journey to net zero - enriching the lives of Europe’s citizens and sustainably boosting economic growth. Together with the following experts and key stakeholders, we will explore how sustainable innovation is accelerating the drive towards a greener Europe:
