SUMMARY:AI & Energy Sector Pitch Day
DESCRIPTION:​About the Event\n\n\n\nArtificial intelligence is rewriting the rules of the global economy\, and the energy sector is feeling the impact first and fastest. We are witnessing a unique duality: AI is simultaneously a massive new burden on our energy infrastructure and the most powerful tool we have to optimize it. \n\n\n\n​This Sector Pitch Day is designed to explore both sides of that coin: Join Greentown Labs and IMPEL for an AI & Energy Sector Pitch Day that will bring both sides of this coin into focus\, spotlighting startups whose solutions are either powering the AI boom or using AI to create a more abundant\, independent\, and resilient energy future. This event is designed for innovators\, industry leaders\, investors\, and policymakers to identify investable opportunities and forge high-impact partnerships across these interconnected domains. \n\n\n\nEvent Highlights\n\n\n\n\nWelcome & Keynote\n\n\n\nStartup Pitch Sessions\n\n\n\nCorporate Partner & Ecosystem Guest Panels\n\n\n\nStartup Showcase & Networking\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister here!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue Information
