Welcome and Moderator

Alumni investors and alumni start-ups are invited to the fourth event of the Waterloo Alumni Angels in Kitchener. We'll be holding our fourth pitch event on February 7 so come out to the event to hear pitches from five of Toronto-Waterloo's most investment-ready startups.

If one had to select a handful of ideas that are foundational to understanding energy, its past, present and future, where would one begin? And how would one communicate them to those who do not specialize in one or another aspect of energy?

Drawing on the sciences, humanities and the social sciences, this talk will focus on ten ‘big’ ideas, illustrating their essentiality, and how they reach across the disciplines.

All are welcome at this free public event.

We are very honored to have Sherry Shannon-Vanstone to give the kick-off lecture.  The evening lecture series is to complement the more curriculum-based IP Management lunch-and-learn series that CryptoWorks 21 hosts monthly.

There will be more lectures in the coming months where other accomplished leaders in commercialization are invited to share their stories with the audience. 

Light reception to follow after the lecture.
