TechForum: Seizing the Clean Tech Revolution

BC is home to an emerging clean technology sector that is well positioned to be a source of world class innovation.

However, despite our break-through innovations, BC’s clean tech sector lags in the race to commercialization. To grow sustainable, financially successful companies that become large employers, the sector must excel beyond research and innovation into global scale commercialization.

At this luncheon and industry forum, world leading experts will discuss initiatives and measures we need to take in British Columbia to seize the global clean technology revolution.

Hear from Nicholas Parker, Executive Chairman - Cleantech Ventures LLC and Mossadiq Umedaly, Chair - BC Hydro and former CEO and Chairman - Xantrex Technology, as they share their knowledge, expertise and opinions on clean tech opportunities to be seized on a provincial and international level.

Engage with Nicholas Parker, Mossadiq Umedaly, Wal van Lierop, President and CEO Chrysalix Energy Management and Steven Cockcroft, Associate Dean Applied Sciences UBC, during the Forum Discussion, asking the critical questions that matter most to you and your business.
