Clean energy innovation will be on display April 13-14 in Denver, CO, as 30 small businesses present their business cases to a panel of investors and industry experts as the US Department of Energy’s (DOE) National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) hosts its annual Industry Growth Forum.
The 30 presenting startups were selected through a competitive application and review process and also will compete for the 2017 NREL Clean Energy Venture Awards.
“Since 2003, the companies that have presented at the forum have raised more than $5 billion, so we know that we are having an impact, and that impact is driven by having the right active investors at the forum together with the entrepreneurs looking for money,” said Richard Adams, director of NREL’s Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center.
