The Story of the Washington, DC Region & the Clean Economy: Tuesday, April 13, 7-9 PM
 
The Washington, DC Metro Region is an increasingly important player in the clean economy – and that’s not only because it’s home to the Department of Energy.  Join the Metro Washington, DC Chapter of the Clean Economy Network for a discussion and networking opportunity surveying the local clean economy landscape.  With a variety of start-ups and venture capital firms, the DC region is becoming an increasingly rich clean technology environment.  Hear from a panel of DC-area companies from various cleantech sectors as well as local cleantech investors.  Panelists will discuss their own efforts and talk about the direction of the DC clean economy sector more broadly, to be followed by audience Q&A and networking.  Invited panelists include: Earth Aid, ZeroBase, New Enterprise Associates and NGP Partners.
