Recording from the 2025 ClimateCAP Summit hosted by UC Berkeley Haas School of Business.

As climate change intensifies, the global food system faces unprecedented challenges. This panel explores how the private sector — spanning from Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) and foodservice to hospitality and venture capital — can lead the transformation toward healthy, sustainable, and more equitable food practices. Industry leaders will discuss their roles in promoting sustainable agriculture, addressing food waste, reducing carbon footprints, promoting fair labor, and increasing accessibility to nutritious, affordable food. Join us as we explore strategies and innovations, ensuring a balance between profitability, environmental responsibility, and social equity.
