Join UMass Lowell Innovation Hub, Massachusetts Founders Network, MassCEC, and FedTech for an evening of networking, updates, and conversation around the Massachusetts climatetech ecosystem. Our state has a thriving climatetech ecosystem in many cities and towns. To support and expand these efforts, we’re hosting events in Lowell and Springfield.
Are you a founder? Join to learn about the breadth of startup resources and funding opportunities for you. Maybe you’re a serial entrepreneur looking for your next gig.
Are you an investor? Meet ambitious entrepreneurs and find rising stars for your portfolio.
Are you already working in climate and sustainability? You have valuable expertise to share as mentors and advisors for climatetech ventures big and small.
Are you interested and want to learn more? This is your chance to find work in climate, volunteer openings, and just explore how you can be part of the climatetech revolution!
In addition to lightning talks from partners across the state, this will also be a special opportunity to learn more about the inaugural MA Climatetech Studio, a MassCEC sponsored program that matches participants with team members, cutting-edge technologies, and mentors and advisors during an intensive 16-week program cohort. All participants will receive a $15,000 stipend as well as a chance to win up to $100,000 in prize funding, additional grant funding, and a paid entrepreneur-in-residence.
Massachusetts is becoming a leader in climatetech; come learn more about the ecosystem and chat with your fellow climatetech enthusiasts!
Agenda:
5:30 pm - Doors open and networking
6:00 pm - Welcoming remarks, lightning talks from co-hosts, and Q&A with presenters
