Climate Innovation at Scale
From Pipitea to Achieving 30 million Users Globally

How much does your bank statement reveal about your values, behaviours and impact on the world around you?

Join us on 12 November at The Wellington Club for an engaging evening with Ben Gleisner, Founder and CEO of Cogo. An economist, environmentalist and social entrepreneur, Ben has spent his career shaping climate policy and driving practical climate action. From leading climate change initiatives at the New Zealand Treasury to building a technology platform that now reaches more than 30 million users globally, Ben brings a unique perspective on the intersection of innovation, finance, technology and sustainability.

Attendees will hear lessons from Cogo's growth journey, explore how financial data can influence consumer behaviour, and gain insights into Ben’s vision for the next phase of climate action through household and transport electrification.

This is CFL’s premier event and includes a dinner and valuable networking opportunities with finance leaders, CFOs and peers across the profession.
