The CDP Europe Awards
The CDP Europe Awards is CDP Europe’s annual flagship event and one of the most anticipated environmental events of the year. During the awards CDP celebrates Europe’s environmental leaders – the companies and cities who earned a place on the prestigious A List. We also recognize the investors financing the sustainable transition through our Climetrics Fund Awards.
The event is an opportunity to gather decision-makers at the highest level to discuss and inspire faster environmental action among the world's biggest companies, major cities, investors, and policymakers.
So far, there have been four editions of the CDP Europe Awards.

"Congratulations to all winners of the CDP Europe Awards. This awards show - and the CDP environmental data bears this out - that many companies, cities and municipalities are striving to achieve greater sustainability, and that they have been successful. This environmental data both documents and fosters progress. For transparency encourages us to aim higher when it comes to protecting the climate and the environment."Dr. Angela Merkel, Chancellor of Germany.
