The focus is on companies and technologies that are transforming the energy industry while driving a sustainable, low-carbon energy future.
Greentown Labs, Halliburton Labs, and the Rice Alliance for Technology and Entrepreneurship are joining forces to launch the inaugural “Houston Energy and Climate Start-up Week 2024.”
Scheduled for September 9-13, the event will bring together leading energy and climate venture capital investors, industry leaders, and start-ups from around the world where they will showcase the most innovative and promising companies and technologies that are transforming the energy industry while driving a sustainable, low-carbon energy future.
