Climate & Energy Ventures Happy Hour
Join the MIT Climate & Energy Ventures Course on May 4th for a happy hour to connect class alumni, prospective students, and sustainability professionals in town for Boston Climate Week.
More on the CEV Course: The goal of Energy Ventures is to educate entrepreneurs through hands-on practical experience.
Teams of engineering, policy, and business students are paired with technologies from MIT and surrounding labs to determine the best path for commercialization. These teams then spend the fall semester building their business plans.
This advanced entrepreneurship course goes beyond general entrepreneurial concepts to address special challenges faced in the clean energy and related industries.
The class gathers cross-disciplinary skills (technology, business, policy, law, etc.) to form teams around new technologies emerging out of several of MIT’s labs.
Over the course of the semester, students will work with their team to build out the venture’s business and market-launch efforts.
The class has spun out over 30 ventures over the last ten years, with many achieving significant market traction.
