Overview Although VC's are a traditional source of funds, there are many opportunities for financing especially in clean energy that can get your company to where you need it to be. You just need to know the right people and get creative.

Join our panel to hear from a range of creative financing avenues including utilities, government granting agencies, angels and VCs who have opportunities for you to fund your company.

Our Panel discussions are candid, interactive and informal. We want you to walk away with the real story behind how things work so you can make it happen yourself. This Panel will be followed by a Holiday Networking Reception.
