Charles Pacini

Manager, Transforming Industrial Ecosystems, World Economic Forum

Senior leader at the intersection of industry, infrastructure, finance and the energy transition, with a track record of leading public-private partnerships that accelerate the transformation of energy-intensive sectors.

At the World Economic Forum, I lead global initiatives that bring together business, government and financial institutions to strengthen industrial competitiveness, enhance energy security and accelerate investment in low-carbon infrastructure. Previously, I led the steel sector of the First Movers Coalition, advancing global market demand for near-zero emissions steel.

Prior to the Forum, I spent eight years at Crédit Agricole across corporate finance and project finance, advising on and structuring financing for large-scale energy, infrastructure and industrial projects across Europe and Asia.
