Hemi Thaker
MASC 1988, Electrical Engineering
During his talk, Hemi Thaker will describe how he and his colleagues built a multi-million dollar tech company, and how he earned his title of ‘accidental entrepreneur’ through thinking differently and learning lessons along the way.
Engineering 7 Grand Opening
Please join us on Monday, October 29, 2018 for the Official Grand Opening of Engineering 7, as we celebrate this significant addition to Waterloo Engineering and the successful completion of our Educating the Engineer of the Future campaign.
Buildings constitute a major component of end-use energy. Next generation technologies embedded in “smart” buildings will remain key to a low carbon energy future. This is a ‘meet-up’ of academic, industry & government experts who have come together to share insights & new ideas for our energy future.
Panel presentations, posters & discussions will focus on:
- The Business of Future Low-Carbon Buildings
As part of the Water Institute's WaterTalks lecture series, Gregory Baird, President of The Water Finance Research Foundation, will present, "Perspectives on the Sustainable Water Infrastructure Challenge: Engineering, Technology or Financial Crisis."
Join us for this important event, bringing together policy makers, technology innovators, leading researchers and entrepreneurs!
Forum Goals and Objectives:
- The goal of the Forum is to explore the effect of emerging technologies on the distribution sector business models.
In 2002, the Canadian Rivers Institute initiated its annual lecture series by conferring of an Honorary Doctoral Degree to Dr. H.B.N. Hynes.
Dr. H.B. Noel Hynes is the world’s most renowned freshwater biologist and a Distinguished Emeritus Professor at the University of Waterloo. Referred to as "the father of running water ecology", he has published extensively, including his definitive textbook on river ecology, The Ecology of Running Waters.
WISE invites you to delve into the work of Elizabeth Monoian and Robert Ferry, Founding Co-Directors of the Land Art Generator Initiative (LAGI). Rather than ask the public to sacrifice the aesthetic of our cities to a monoculture of solar panels and wind turbines, LAGI presents new energy infrastructures that are expressions of local culture and that strive to enhance the beauty of cities and landscapes.
In partnership with the Waterloo Public Library, WISE is pleased to present this second opportunity to attend a free public lecture with Land Art Generator Initiative Co-Founders Elizabeth Monoian & Robert Ferry.
ABSTRACT
We invite you to explore possibilities in the nanoscale.
WNC is a student-organized conference that provides an opportunity for students, employers, and entrepreneurs to learn from one another, strengthening our mutual understanding about how nanotechnology is taught and how it is used in industry, in innovative research, and how it is powering new ventures.
