With its vast curtain of glass and 40,000-square-metre aluminium roof sculpted to echo a seabird soaring in flight, the striking Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre is a major landmark on the Hong Kong Island skyline. The HKCEC is known as a world-class convention and exhibition centre and was voted Best Convention and Exhibition Centre in Asia 13 times among industry awards from 2001 to 2016.
COP30 is more than just a conference where leaders discuss global climate governance; it is also a space where solutions and innovations in response to the climate emergency are found. The Green Zone, located in the Parque da Cidade, is the space where civil society, public and private institutions, and global leaders connect, dialogue, innovate, and invest sustainably.
The Green Zone showcases solutions and partners that reinforce the commitment to an environmental, social, and governance (ESG) approach to international dialogue. Open to the public, this space promotes democratic engagement, diversity of voices, and transparency in climate discussions—complementing the diplomatic work carried out in the Blue Zone.
