Event Highlights

 

Horizon19 

September 19–20 // Boston

Join clean energy buyers, major corporations, solution providers, financiers, public sector leaders, start-ups, and emerging companies at Horizon19! Taking place on September 19–20 at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, Horizon19 will bring together the clean economy community through an integrated summit, solution showcasing opportunities, matchmaking and networking, pitch arenas, and several other side programs. Following the success of last year’s Horizon18, this year’s event will focus on the themes of clean infrastructure, energy transition, sustainable mobility, and innovations in digitization. Mintz is proud to sponsor this event for the second year, and our own Eric Macaux will speak at the summit on a panel entitled, “Innovating the Low-Carbon Economy for the Next Decade.” To learn more about Horizon19 and register for the event, click here.

 

CleanTechIQ’s Powering Up Indoor Agriculture Forum 

September 26 // New York

Join our team, alongside CleanTechIQ and Wells Fargo Innovation Incubator, for a timely discussion with food industry corporates, innovators, and investors that will address the most critical issues facing indoor agriculture. Through a series of fireside chats with leading indoor agriculture company CEOs, this forum will compare and contrast the different models, including vertical farming, greenhouses, container farms, and modular systems.

  • Key indoor ag topics that will be addressed: 
  • What are the climate and sustainability impacts of indoor agriculture?
  • How will new indoor farm projects be financed?
  • How is technology addressing concerns around its capital and energy intensity?
  • What types of higher-value food products will be grown indoors in the future?
  • Which indoor farming models are primed to capture the benefits of indoor farming and have the potential to achieve scale?  

Mintz is proud to sponsor this forum, and our own Sahir Surmeli will be part of the fireside chat entitled, “How to Attract Capital to Greenhouse Projects.” We are excited to offer our network a 20% discount on tickets. To learn more and to receive a 20% discount, click here.
