VX2010: VERDEXCHANGE Green Marketmakers Conference
Road West From Copenhagen Paved with Clean Energy and Green Technology Opportunities
Join leading technology, energy and cleantech marketmakers - the executives, private and public, who are creating the global green economy - at VX2010: The VERDEXCHANGE Green Marketmakers Conference in Los Angeles, California.
VX2010 is an unmatched, cross platform, B-to-B opportunity to learn from and network with industry leaders, elected officials, public regulators, environmental stewards, investors, and financiers. Continuing the tradition of previous VERDEXCHANGE conferences, attendees from California and the Western States will gather under one roof with global, national, and subnational climate change leaders.
Conference panels and plenary sessions will highlight current and future business opportunities, current and about-to-be in market products and services, public policy developments, and research on needed-in-market technologies that are driving climate change innovation, sustainable practice, and new investment. As previous conference participants know, while world leaders convene in Copenhagen to reach international consensus, it’s California and the Western States where clean and green U.S. energy policies will be first implemented and where corresponding robust markets for green technologies are quickly developing.
January’s VX2010 builds on and confirms the central thesis of the 2009 VERDEXCHANGE Green Marketmakers Conference: California and the Western States' pacesetting climate change regulations, huge appetite for alternative energy and technologies, and sizable procurement budgets are generating enormous economic opportunities and challenges for entrepreneurs, manufacturers, and investors and have served as templates for national, international, state, and local government energy market regulations, commercial low carbon technologies, and green job stimulus policies.
President Obama's announced climate and energy policy goals, Congress' pending greenhouse gas offset legislation, and the global carbon reduction agenda of December's United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen present new and even larger economic opportunities for clean energy and green industry stakeholders.
Don't miss this timely opportunity to network, accelerate and profit from these clean energy and green tech marketplace developments.
