Up to 20 Strategic Partners will be accepted to participate in this Strategic Partner CleanTech Day (SPCD). Each will hold various meetings with early-stage CleanTech companies. Once the SPCD organizers have received ranked preferences for meetings from each of the Strategic Partners and the CleanTech companies, the SPCD organizers will schedule meetings.

Testimonials

“I have found the Boston CleanTech Conference to be a very valuable event to attend, both to stay abreast of CleanTech technologies and discover emerging companies for us to partner with. One of Huntsman’s strategic thrusts is to identify novel biorenewable chemistries that we can adopt in our Polyurethanes business. At BCVD we were introduced to Biomethodes, a French company, with very interesting enzymatic processing capabilities that fit well with our ambitions. Attending Boston CleanTech Venture Day provided the opportunity to develop this relationship quickly and efficiently.”
