About the Speaker
Professor Megan Bowman is a full Law Professor and founding Director of the Centre for Climate Law & Governance at King’s College London with a passion for enlightened leadership and ‘fit for purpose’ regulation in a time of climate crisis. An award-winning scholar and teacher, her expertise focuses on empirical and transnational analyses of sustainable finance in the context of financial regulation and corporate law. She leads the King’s/UNEP research-impact partnership on Legal Readiness for Climate Finance, consults to governments and NGOs on implementing the Paris Agreement, and has been Principal Investigator on several research grants including a prestigious Leverhulme Fellowship on net zero financial regulation in Europe and the UK (2020-2022).

Mr. Justice William Blair of the High Court of Justice of England and Wales to international acclaim. She is a qualified barrister and solicitor of the High Court of Australia and Supreme Court of Victoria with a double degree in Arts/Law (Hons, Monash), an LLM in Comparative Law (McGill) and a PhD in regulatory theory (ANU).
