Critical Connections: Bridging Energy, Minerals & National Security
Critical Connections: Bridging Energy, Minerals & National Security
Following our inaugural event on March 2025, where 40+ leaders defined KolobX’s vision, join us for the 2nd KolobX event as we take actionable steps toward energy security, infrastructure resilience, and economic growth.
This session will unite municipal leaders, energy innovators, infrastructure developers, and investors to tackle real-world challenges—like those faced by fast-growing cities such as Eagle Mountain—and turn constraints into opportunities. Together, we’ll refine KolobX’s role as a catalyst for collaboration and execution, shaping a regional energy roadmap for high-impact outcomes.
