The Bombay Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s (BCCI) virtual two-day discussion, Sustainability Conclave: Target Net Zero, will see key industry voices and stakeholders debate climate change from an Indian perspective. This discussion stems from the pledge that India made at the recently concluded Conference of Parties (COP26) Climate Summit in Glasgow to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2070.

Founded in 1836 by seven British nationals and three Parsis, the Bombay Chamber of Commerce and Industry is one of India’s oldest chambers with a rich history. It was responsible for Asia’s first railway journey from Bombay to Thana (Thane) on the Great Indian Peninsula Railway (today’s Central Railway) and has played a significant role in supporting the development of industries in Mumbai over  decades.
