Are You Smarter Than a 4th Grader: Energy Investor Showdown

​Get your front row seat to watch a $100M energy investment deal happen in real time. Two teams will compete head-to-head to decide whether a commercial-scale renewable energy project is worthy of their cash.

​Team 1: a group of highly-trained due diligence professionals with decades of experience in finance and energy.

​Team 2: a fourth grader who has literally never heard of a pro forma before.*

​*Team 2 will have access to CEART.io, the AI diligence platform for modern energy projects. 

​In this 30-minute showdown, these two teams will get access to hundreds of project files from an energy developer. They’ll share their screens with the audience as they scour the files and analyze contracts, permits, engineering documents, and financial models in real time. We’ll put the team of professionals to the test to see if they really are smarter than a single elementary-aged competitor empowered by AI.

​Will these teams build the future of renewable energy? Or will their cash get burned by a failed project? Come to this rumble-at-the-rock to see for yourself!
