Trescon Launches CARE – New summit series to accelerate climate action and clean energy partnerships across the region
Date, City, Egypt: In a decisive move to catalyse real climate solutions, Trescon has launched CARE – the Climate Action & Renewable Energy ExpoFocused on driving clean energy adoption, investment, and large-scale sustainable projects across the rapidly growing Middle East and North Africa region, CARE MENA is built for action—not just ideas. With over 10,000 attendees, 950 investors, 200 global speakers, and 225+ sponsors and exhibitors, the event will feature high-level keynotes, panel discussions, exclusive executive roundtables, and a vibrant exhibition. CARE kicks off in India this September, followed by dedicated CARE MENA edition set for 26–27 November in Dubai, and the KSA edition on 8-9 December in Riyadh. The series opened with the CARE Dialogues on 24 June 2025 – an exclusive, invite-only session, held in Dubai under the theme 'Green Finance and Beyond: Driving ESG Across Sectors.' Powered by Emtribe, the event convened senior leaders from finance, policy, and technology to explore practical strategies for embedding ESG into core business models. 'As a partner of CARE, we're proud to back a platform that focuses on what really matters — getting the right people in the room and driving honest, outcome-focused conversations,' said Mohammed Saleem, Founder of Emtribe. He continued, 'There's a lot of talk in this space. CARE stands out by pushing for action that's practical, collaborative, and needed.' As the first official prelude to CARE, the session set the tone for cross-sector collaboration and is helping shape a summit agenda grounded in real-world priorities and regional relevance. For Egypt, the timing is strategic. The country has long positioned itself as a regional climate leader – from hosting COP27 to pioneering large-scale renewables like Benban Solar Park (International Energy Agency). With Egypt's national target to source 42% of electricity from renewables by 2035 and an ambitious $40 billion green hydrogen plan (International Energy Renewable Agency), CARE MENA provides a timely, high-impact platform for government leaders, developers, financiers, and technology providers to engage, forge partnerships, and scale projects across borders. Talking about the series, Naveen Bharadwaj, Group CEO of Trescon said, ' CARE MENA is designed to accelerate climate action through real collaboration and investment. Egypt's deep commitment to sustainability and its growing clean-tech sector makes it a vital player in the regional energy transition. The summit is an ideal space for Egyptian leaders to engage in meaningful dialogue, secure funding, and expand the reach of homegrown solutions.' Egyptian climate-tech innovators, utilities, and public-sector institutions stand to benefit significantly from CARE MENA's cross-border format. The expo brings together policymakers and private-sector leaders from across the Gulf, North Africa, and beyond, offering a gateway to regional deal flow, clean-tech funding, and scalable implementation models. It's a space where Egypt's sustainability ecosystem can showcase its achievements, form high-level partnerships, and contribute meaningfully to shaping the MENA region's clean energy future. CARE is supported by the Global CARE Alliance, an advisory board of sustainability experts and climate-tech leaders. The Alliance features industry pioneers and policy veterans including: Dr. Abdullah Belhaif Al Nuaimi, Former Minister of Climate Change & Environment, UAE Dr. Waleed Alkalash, Former Deputy Minister for Labor Policies / CEO Ministry of Labour / Business Consulting & Services, KSA Dr. Ioannis Spanos, Vice President – Sustainability, Expo City Dubai, UAE Alice Spencer, Executive Director, University of Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership, UK Maher Al Kaabi, Executive Committee Member, UAEIIC & Council Member, UAE Circular Economy Council Julie Newman, Director of Sustainability, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), USA Erik Solheim, Former Minister of Environment, & Former Under Secretary General, UNEP, Norway , and others Their combined expertise anchors CARE in real-world climate leadership, helping transform high-level dialogue into concrete action, investment, and global impact. Each edition will also host the ClimateTech World Cup — a global pitch competition spotlighting early-stage innovations in renewable energy, carbon capture, climate adaptation, sustainable water solutions, and circular economy. As countries across MENA race toward net-zero targets and mobilise record investments in renewables, CARE MENA arrives at a critical moment. Egypt's participation will not only spotlight its leadership but also deepen its engagement with the region's growing clean energy value chain. For more information, visit .
