The merger of OS Climate into FINOS now gives FINOS Members the ability to address a wide range of pressing challenges in climate-related risk management, regulatory compliance, and finance and investment in transition opportunities.
OSFF and New York Climate Week allow for that cross pollination within our FINOS Community. Here are the OS-C Events and Talks in September:
OS-Climate Solutions for Financial Services
Join us on September 23rd for an engaging exploration of the intersection of open-source technology, climate solutions, and financial services. This event will highlight collaborative efforts aimed at addressing the urgent challenges posed by climate change through innovative tools, collaborations, and strategies.
- Monday, September 23, 2-6pm - BMO Offices, New York
Capgemini's Business to Planet Connect

OS-Climate Physical Risk Workshop
Join us for an in-depth FINOS workshop where we'll guide participants through the essential elements of the Open Source Climate (OS-C) componentry on GitHub. This session will cover the fundamentals of understanding and navigating the componentry, accessing and contributing to documentation, and getting started as a user or developer. We'll explore how these components integrate open source with commercial and proprietary elements to build comprehensive solutions. Additionally, we'll emphasize the importance of embedding data and model governance into the foundation of any solution. This workshop builds on our previous OS-C Climate Week discussion, where we highlighted how OS-C's open-source tools enhance global physical risk measurement and foster resilience through collaborative innovation.
- Monday, September 30, 10am-12pm - New York
OS-Climate talks continue from the keynote and breakout stages at OSFF. Join us for insightful discussions on the convergence of climate risk, sustainable finance, and open-source innovation. Explore how climate risk impacts financial services, the integration of traditional and sustainable finance, and how open standards are driving sustainable IT in the industry. Additionally, learn about pioneering efforts in ESG data sharing through open-source platforms like OS-Climate and Unity Catalog. These sessions provide valuable perspectives on how open-source solutions can help address the urgent climate challenges facing financial institutions today.
