Building a 2030 Carbon Portfolio That Delivers
**Tuesday, September 22, 2026 · 9:00–11:00 AM ET **
2030 is closer than it looks – and for carbon removal buyers, the question is no longer which credits to buy, but which ones will actually show up.
About the event
A candid morning on delivery risk
Join us for breakfast and a working conversation about delivery risk: what it costs, how it gets priced and diligenced, and why a removal credit that already exists is a fundamentally different asset.
Over coffee, you’ll hear how buyers, intermediaries, and developers are approaching this next phase of the carbon market — including the independent voices buyers rely on to vet projects, and the developers behind the market’s highest-delivering engineered CDR.
Agenda
9:00 – 9:25 Breakfast and networking
9:25 – 9:35 Keynote: The real cost of delivery risk. Paul Bloom, CEO, Gevo — what delivery risk actually costs a buyer, and what hitting 2030 goals looks like when we’re not all Microsoft.
9:35 – 10:15 Panel: Building a low delivery risk portfolio. How buyers should vet delivery — with Paolo Piffaretti, Co-Founder & CEO of ClimeFi, and Jason Gregoric, AVP, Global Head of Sustainability at Nasdaq. Moderated by Robert Höglund, Milkywire / CDR.fyi.
10:15 – 10:50 Spotlight: Perspectives from the market’s highest-delivering engineered CDR projects. Exomad Green and Gevo North Dakota on what it takes to deliver at scale — Diego Justiniano, CEO of Exomad Green, and Alex Clayton, Chief Carbon Officer of Gevo, moderated by Jan-Willem Bode, President of Puro.earth.
10:50 – 11:00 Close and networking
