Future Dialogue

Transformative change

This one-of-a-kind event will unite leaders from politics, energy, media, technology, and youth to address the pressing challenges of our time, focused on accelerating the energy transition. 

In an age of uncertainty—marked by geopolitical tensions, climate instability, and the rapid evolution of technology — one thing is clear: the future won’t wait!  There is a growing need for dialogue that fosters collaboration, innovation, and radical optimism. The Lisbon Future Dialogue is more than just a conversation: it’s a catalyst for bold ideas and game-changing collaboration, where global leaders, policymakers, business pioneers, and visionaries come together to shape a future that is not only sustainable but socially just and technologically responsible. 

Over two days, participants will engage in bold conversations on defining issues of our time, such as the geopolitics of the energy transition, the role of artificial intelligence and big tech in sustainability, the impact of climate change on migration and social justice, and the growing challenges of misinformation in the digital era. The event will also examine how we rise above political and cultural divides to spark a global movement for climate action and energy transformation.
