The Pacific Northwest’s premier clean-tech innovation conference for renewable energy and sustainable built environment research, development, and commercialization brings together university researchers, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders for an all-day, hands-on gathering.
This year's theme is "Rising to the Challenge." Although cleantech has faced recent challenges, our region is tapping innovation, collaboration, and commercialization to overcome these challenges and build a strong clean-tech economy.
The program will feature a range of regional and national speakers, research presentations, and interactive workshops focused on creating jobs through clean-tech innovation and filling the gaps in developing new products and services.
Keynote Speaker:
Karina Edmonds, Technology Transfer Coordinator, U.S. Energy Department
The Department's first full-time Technology Transfer Coordinator, Karina Edmonds is responsible for working with National Labs to accelerate moving discoveries from lab to the private sector.
