The 2024 edition of the SDG Global Business Forum will take place virtually as one of the high-level special events alongside the 2024 High-Level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF), the United Nations central platform for the follow-up and review of the SDGs. It will place special emphasis on the SDGs under in-depth review this year, namely Goal 1 (No poverty), Goal 2 (Zero hunger), Goal 13 (Climate action), Goal 16 (Peace, justice and strong institutions) and Goal 17 (Partnerships for the Goals). It will also serve as a key moment ahead of the Summit of the Future in September, gathering business inputs towards key topics for a reinvigorated multilateral system that is better positioned to positively impact people's lives.
