Cleantech Forum XVIII: Scaling Cleantech Markets: Driving Job and Value Creation, Evolutionary Design and New Global Supply Chains
Omni Shoreham Hotel, Washington, D. C.
As Premier Global sponsors of the Cleantech Group, we look forward to seeing you in September at what is one of the foremost clean tech conferences in the industry.
Be sure to attend the Policy Drivers Needed to Accelerate Technology Deployment panel on Wednesday at 12:20 p.m. Todd Glass, Co-Chair of Heller Ehrman's Energy & Clean Technologies practice and Chair of the Energy Practice Group, will moderate an exciting panel of speakers in a discussion on policies that will drive technology deployment across North America.
Conference Overview
As we conclude the first decade of the 21st Century, stresses on the global economy from rising inflation and slowing growth in developed economies are being compounded by the impacts of climate change. Clean technologies hold the promise of addressing these challenges, and doing so by generating superior returns along with job and wealth creation.
From 2001 to 2007, the cleantech investment category has expanded an average of 49.6% per year globally, and despite growing headwinds in the global economy, is poised for continued strong growth into the second decade of the 21st Century.
Cleantech Forum XVIII, convening in Washington, D.C. September 15-17 2008, is the world’s premier investment intelligence platform, providing insight, investment opportunities and unparalleled networking for the world’s leading investors, growth companies, policy makers, scientists and enterprises.
Cleantech Global Showcase
See more than 20 leading companies, hand-picked by the Forum Selection Committee, present their value propositions. More than USD $1.2 Billion has been raised by companies presenting at the forum since 2002.
