Innovating with Amazon: Six Months of Building and What’s Next
October 1, 2026 @ 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm ET
Join us to celebrate the culmination of Go Build 2026, a 6-month open-innovation accelerator with Amazon and the Global CO₂ Initiative (GCI) at the University of Michigan, built to accelerate collaboration with startups in the field of CO₂ utilization and valorization.
Specifically, the program seeks to speed the development and implementation of advanced CO₂ mineralization and carbonation technologies to decarbonize the built environment—both within Amazon’s operations and the construction industry more broadly.
At this event, the five participating startups will share what they learned working alongside Amazon and GCI, the collaborations they’ve accomplished throughout the program, and what’s next for their technologies and their work with Amazon and GCI.
We look forward to seeing you at Greentown Boston to celebrate this milestone and the innovators behind it!
Agenda:
• Check-in and networking
• Opening remarks from Greentown Labs and Amazon
• Startup introduction and presentations featuring:
Carbon Infuse (Brooklyn, New York, U.S.) develops a novel CO2 mineralization technology that upcycles industrial waste and flue gas into cheaper and cleaner materials for construction and manufacturing.
Carbon Negative Solutions (Portland, Oregon, U.S.) converts any region’s industrial wastes and minerals into carbon-negative cement supplements (SCMs).
Low Carbon Materials (Durham, United Kingdom) develops a proprietary range of carbon-sequestering aggregate-like additives for concrete and asphalt.
Revora Materials (Tappan, New York, U.S.) converts industrial residues and CO₂ into lower-carbon construction materials for cement and concrete production.
Neocrete (Auckland, New Zealand) develops an additive that makes low-carbon materials (SCMs) behave like cement, reducing the carbon and cost of concrete while making it more durable.

Venue Information
Parking is incredibly limited at Greentown Labs and we encourage attendees to consider taking advantage of public transportation. We’re a short walk from the recently opened Union Square station, as well as 1 mile away from both the Harvard and Porter MBTA stations. Union Square in Somerville is also easily accessible via the #86 and #91 MBTA buses.
