In New York, Climate Week 2025 is underway, with a strong emphasis on future-forward sustainability. The event brings together leaders from business, government, and civil society to discuss and accelerate climate action.

Despite these uncertainties, there are signs of optimism, particularly in Europe's venture-capital market and the strong demand for Saudi bonds. As always, the future of business growth depends on adaptability and innovation.
