MIT Crowds & Climate Colab Conference



Tuesday, October 6, 2015, 8:00 am - 7:30 pm
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts USA
Conference details

You are invited to attend Crowds & Climate, the Climate CoLab's year-end event held at the MIT campus on Tuesday, October 6, 2015.
Running for the third year, this conference brings together leaders from businesses, non-profit organizations, governments and communities around the world to advance an online global problem-solving effort to tackle climate change.
As a key part of the event, we will celebrate the innovative proposals that emerged from the 2015 Climate CoLab contests.  These winners will present how their work tackles specific climate change challenges and will engage with leaders in the field to help accelerate their ideas.  Presentations will be followed by a highly interactive workshop, where you can meet and contribute to these winners yourself, as well as engage in conversations with other attendees about how the world's experts and citizens can work together to solve the complex, complicated problem of climate exchange.
This year's program is tied closely with Solve, MIT's new cross-disciplinary leadership program, which is holding its inaugural event this same week.  Those attending Crowds & Climate will participate in Solve's Tuesday roundtable panel on fuel, where world-class thought leaders will discuss the future of energy, food and water.  Attendees are also invited to join the Solve opening convocation on Monday afternoon.
You'll leave these events inspired to work together to solve the world’s greatest challenges., and with connections, insights and a program of actions you, and others, will take to help advance the global response to climate change.
