Entrepreneurship for a Zero Carbon Society’ conference 22-24 September 2008
Posted on September 21, 2008
Eastern Europe is usually known for the quality education and skilled labor force. However, entrepreneurs and students have a strong feeling that while the education here teaches well the theoretical stuff, it lacks the flexibility and capacity to adapt to the real world environment and demands.
That’s why I was impressed to see that abroad education deals with the most actual and on topic subjects like carbon emissions and clean energy.
Judge Business School will host the first international ‘Entrepreneurship for a Zero Carbon Society’ conference 22-24 September 2008.
Held at the Sidgwick Site in Cambridge, it will provide a platform for international experts from the key fields involved in tackling climate change, to present the latest research and ideas in an open-minded and politically neutral forum.
The conference will open by addressing the issues surrounding ‘Emerging problems and solutions’, including discussions on the global context of the impending energy crisis and the major causes of global warming, as well as the substantial role alternative ‘green energy technologies’ can play in ensuring a more sustainable society.
Entrepreneurial, venture capital and corporate participation in developing low carbon solutions, such as large scale deployment of solar technology, will be debated under the title of ‘Scaling-up lower carbon solutions’. During which, leading economists will also discuss the utility of subsidies, or ‘freedom tariffs’, in encouraging the efficient development of new entrepreneurial solutions.
