Event Overview

The Future of the European Green Deal: Impact on Global Cold Chain

June 10, 2026 | 9:00 a.m. EST

The European Green Deal was designed to be the world’s first comprehensive roadmap to carbon neutrality, but the landscape in 2026 is shifting. From adjusted timelines for the electric-vehicle (EV) phaseout to the complexities of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and EU Deforestation Regulations (EUDR), global businesses are facing a moving target.

Join the Global Cold Chain Alliance (GCCA) for a critical assessment of Europe’s current environmental policy trajectory. Our expert panel will move beyond the headlines to explore what these legislative pivots mean for your operations, your compliance requirements, and your long-term sustainability investments within the global cold chain.

Who Should Attend?

Global GCCA members, specifically C-suite executives, sustainability officers, and international logistics directors who need to align their 2027–2030 strategies with European market realities.

Learning Objectives

  • Deconstruct the current status of the European Green Deal’s landmark policies, including the EV phaseout and CBAM.

  • Identify the specific operational risks and compliance requirements introduced by the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) for cold chain stakeholders.

  • Assess how European legislative shifts influence global sustainability benchmarks and carbon-reporting standards.

  • Strategize adaptive approaches for the cold chain to maintain market access and competitiveness in a fluctuating regulatory environment.
