University of Oxford VC Professor Irene Tracey introduces Oxford's first ever pan-University presence at #LCAW2026. With 1300+ events and nearly 100K attendees, LCAW is the world's biggest climate action event. 

Since launching in 2016, the programme has trained more than 280 executives from over 100 countries, drawn from across the intersection of finance and sustainability: financial institutions, the civil service, supervisory authorities, regulatory agencies, central banks, NGOs, and philanthropy.

The executive training programme, Future-proofing Business and the Economy, is designed to equip senior leaders with the insights, tools, and confidence to navigate accelerating global change and the green transition.  

Peter Michaelis, Head of the Sustainable Investment Team at Liontrust PLC, reflects on a recent custom Executive Education course developed with the Oxford Smith School. 

We design our bespoke executive education programmes to equip leaders from business, NGOs, the public sector and government with the skills to transform their organisation’s approach to sustainability.
