Perfectly integrable into the regular workday, exciting speakers, climate-friendly activities, and events await - online and in the participating companies. All together for a more sustainable future for our companies. A one-of-its-kind hybrid event!

ACT stands for Action, and Climate Action at that. Companies participating in Climate Week get access to more than 30 modules - from climate workshops & activities to interactive challenges. This way, companies can get active together with their employees and not only raise awareness for climate action, but also take concrete actions with real impact.
CONNECT is about cross-company exchange. In numerous side events organized by Glacier or by companies from the Glacier Community, we become active together. Numerous formats for a wide range of target groups and stakeholders - from CSR departments and C-levels to providers of climate protection solutions - enable cross-company and cross-sector exchange. Because we can only solve the climate crisis together!
Climate Ranger
Let us work together for the future because it is easier as a community. Take the chance, talk to each other, exchange ideas, motivate and support each other - mutually. Because at a time like this, we need people with courage, people like you: Climate Rangers.
Alexander van der Bellen, Federal President of the Republic of Austria (at Climate Impact Day 2021)
