Concordia launches Climate Business Institute

Concordia University’s John Molson School of Business has launched its Climate Business Institute (CBI). The institute will drive change through research and collaboration with businesses, local communities, policymakers, and educational institutions. CBI Scientific Director Denis Schweizer explained that the research “will provide businesses with actionable insights that will enable them to integrate sustainable practices into the market.” The institute will also contain three impact labs dedicated to Carbon Governance and Leadership, Climate Risk and Finance, and Climate Measures and Reporting, respectively. John Molson School Associate Dean of Research and Impact Cédric Lesage said that the goal is for the CBI to be a “one-stop access point” for research on business, climate change, innovation and outreach, and sustainability at Concordia.
