Building on the success of the Climate Ring by Swissnex in Boston and New York at Climate Week NY, Swissnex in China is proud to present Climate Ring Shanghai during Shanghai Climate Week in April 2025.
The Climate Ring Shanghai is a powerful platform where the global battle against climate change comes to life—literally, in a boxing ring. Held during Shanghai Climate Week (22.-26. April 2025), the Climate Ring underscores the urgency of addressing humanity’s greatest challenge collaboratively. Through high-impact discussions, presentations and exhibitions the symbolic boxing ring, becomes a dynamic space where ideas and knowledge flow, uniting stakeholders in the fight against climate change.
While academic exchanges with China face increasing complexities, climate change remains a shared global concern that transcends borders. Switzerland plays a central role in tackling this crisis, leveraging its expertise in climate science, innovation, and diplomacy to strengthen the Sino-Swiss partnership. By strategically promoting collaboration in climate sciences, the Climate Ring serves as a unique platform to foster partnerships, inspire action, and elevate Switzerland’s leadership on the global stage.
The week-long program features interdisciplinary discussions and events, including closed-door expert sessions, networking opportunities, and themed events like the Climate Ring Opening Symposium, Innovation Night for Climate, and Art-Science workshops. Topics will cover climate policy, technological solutions, and art-science perspectives on climate change, aiming to raise public awareness and foster collaborations.
