Extreme Hangout

FINN Partners is brought on as AOR by community climate action platform Extreme Hangout, charged with helping the platform expand the awareness and impact of its presence at COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan—including its main stage, dedicated workshop space, an extensive exhibition area, more than 500 speakers, diverse panels and workshops. FINN efforts will focus on driving awareness and attendance at Extreme Hangout events planned for COP29. Extreme Hangout enables engagement in the sustainability space by organizing open-to-all climate action impact forums around the world and curating positive sustainability stories that are shared with its 20 million social media followers each day. “This communications partnership with FINN aligns perfectly in terms of shared values and a joint commitment to sustainable change through the work of our two organizations,” said Extreme Hangout founder Amber Nuttall.
