Take advantage of this on-campus opportunity to learn, network and foster research partnerships with technology innovators, leading researchers, government experts and entrepreneurs. Panel presentations will explore the implications of disruptive emerging technologies within the existing energy distribution network and the role of adaptive new policies and regulations. Delve into alternative approaches to financing small to medium size enterprises (SMEs) and consider what determines success or failure in a new business model.
Our Innovation Showcase will feature students research posters, information from funding agencies, entrepreneurial ventures, and local organizations. We will also have outdoor EV displays: the University of Waterloo Alternative Fuels Team (UWAFT) will be on site with their competition car answering your questions about who they are, what they do, and how they became one of only two Canadian universities competing in EcoCAR3!
A reception will immediately follow in Fed Hall. All are encouraged to stay and join us for drinks & hors d’oeuvres
