Climate Restoration and Supply Chains
Co-hosted by Wharton Energy Network, Thunderbird School of Global Management, The Wharton Risk Center and ColumbiaDC.
WCNCR Climate Change Affinity Group will host a signature event on climate change. The event will have two eminent speakers presenting on two very important topics:
- Sanjeev Khagram, Director General, and Dean of Thunderbird School, will talk about his work on market opportunities for climate restoration, and
- Brent Habig, Vice President for Institute for Sustainable Communities (ISC), will talk about their work with companies such as Apple and H&M on creating sustainable supply chains
The event will be moderated by Arthur van Benthem, Associate Professor of Business Economics and Public Policy at Wharton and co-faculty lead of Wharton’s Business, Climate, and Environment Lab

Mr. Brent Habig leads ISC’s international portfolio of programs that accelerate climate action and catalyze equitable and inclusive economic growth in cities and supply chains across Asia. Brent is a respected leader and public speaker in both the environment and international development fields, with expertise in climate change, sustainability, corporate partnerships, value chain development, entrepreneurship, and access to finance. Prior to ISC, Brent was Vice President for West and Southern Africa at TechnoServe, where he managed a USD$32M annual portfolio of 40+ projects accelerating market-based economic development.
