After 30 years of disruptive innovation, the IT industry is in transition; computers and computer networks are commoditized. Computing is no longer about crunching numbers it is about driving collaboration, delivering multi-mode communication channels and competing with traditional news and entertainment mediums. Many of the technical IT and software jobs that existed 5 years ago, are now obsolete. In the midst of this industry turmoil where are our brightest minds turning to? The answer is not IT; the answer is Clean Technology.

Canadians have a demonstrated history of delivering engineering excellence but all too often, fail to commercialize these innovations on a world stage. We have over 30 years of engineering excellence and experience. How do we drive commercial success for emerging Clean Technology companies when we have failed before? This event will focus on how we, as Canadians can become leaders in the emerging Clean Tech field.

At this event you will learn what Canadians businesses need to do to successfully navigate the Clean Tech waters to deliver world-class presence.
