 The MIT Energy Conference has grown to be one of the premier energy events in the country. The conference has much to offer to MIT Alumni and others interested in energy. Leaders in the fields of technology, policy, industry, and finance will congregate to develop solutions as the world seeks new ways of producing and consuming energy. Our theme echoes President Barack Obama’s speech during a landmark visit to the MIT campus last fall by highlighting both energy challenges and promising technology and policy pathways toward potential solutions.
