Event Details

 

Green Light Distrikt (GLD) Boston hosts its third Cleantech Kingpins Speaker Series "Save the World or Beat China: How to Sell Cleantech Investment to the US?" on Thursday September 30th, 6pm - 7:30pm, at the NEXUS Green Building Resource Center

Under almost any metric, the US is falling behind in cleantech investment compared with European and Asian countries.

We're gathering a diverse group of Boston experts to answer three questions:

  1. What are you currently working on?
  2. From their perspective, why is this trend happening?
  3. From their perspective, what are (at least) 3 things we must do to reverse this trend?

 

Kingpins is a forum to highlight Boston's best cleantech innovators to share their stories, successes, challenges, and future insights with industry professionals, industry professionals and the community at large.

Kingpins is hosted by Green Light Distrkt (@greenldistrikt
