Seminar synopsis

What do contract lawyers do? Commercial lawyers may seem far from climate action, but Matthew Gingell reveals they hold the keys. Contracts govern nearly all economic transactions and shape how solutions cross borders. In this talk, he reframes contracts as the invisible infrastructure accelerating delivery of climate action on the ground.
