The Clean Tech Summit will focus attention on North Carolina’s Research Triangle area as a global leader in the clean-tech field. Clean tech includes smart grid technology, efficient water management, efficient, multimodal transportation, environmentally sustainable waste disposal technologies and more.
Carolina recognizes the promise of this sector and its economic development potential across the state.
In response, the UNC Institute for the Environment and the Center for Sustainable Enterprise in UNC’s Kenan-Flagler Business School, in partnership with the Research Triangle Cleantech Cluster and Strata Solar, are offering the annual Clean Tech Summit.
