C26 brings the built environment into the resilience era. Under  “Forging Resilience” we connect climate risk, insurance, sustainable finance, decarbonization, and data + AI.  

Europe is shifting from emergency response to “preparedness by design”—and buildings are becoming a pillar of security, independence, and long-term value. Circle 2026 is a curated day of interviews, keynotes, and expert discussions spanning finance and insurance, urban policy and planning, venture capital, innovation, and AI-enabled decision-making. Alongside global and European perspectives, we’ll spotlight Italian best practices and leave you with a sharper view of what resilience will mean for assets, cities, portfolios, and standards in the next cycle.

GBC Italia graciously invites the entire Circle community to meet up for an after-dinner drink at this vibrant, post-industrial venue. Join us to unwind, mingle, and enjoy the evening with our Italian hosts and Milanese music.
