The NanoBusiness Alliance,
the world's leading nanotechnology trade association, and the Colorado Nanotechnology
Alliance today announced the keynote lineup for the 2nd
annual Nano Renewable Energy Summit, which will return to the University
of Denver, CO, from June 22 - 23, 2009.
The Nano Renewable Energy Summit is a gathering of world-renowned experts at
the intersection of renewable energy and nanotechnology, with a specific focus
on the business, commercialization, and economic development potential of emerging
technologies in the renewable energy and sustainability sectors.
"We are very excited to return to Denver for the 2nd Annual Summit. Based
upon the success of our first year, with over 250 attendees, we have determined
that Denver is the perfect city for Nanotechnology as it relates to renewable
energy and more specifically to solar energy, which will be a focal point of
this year's event," said Vincent Caprio, NanoBusiness Alliance Vice
President and Event Director. "2008 was the year of change in America with
the election of President Obama, and solar energy is a critically important
issue, being discussed both at home and in corporate board rooms."
The event will feature keynote presentations from the following thought leaders
in the area of nanotechnology-based renewable energy:
- Dr. Dan Arvizu - Director, National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)
- Jack Uldrich - Global Futurist and Best-Selling Author
- David C. Craig - President and CEO, Citizenre
- Scott M. Livingston - CEO, Livingston Securities LLC
- Michael Holman - Research Director, Lux Research Inc.
- Dr. Mohan S. Misra - Founder and CEO, Ascent Solar
"The solar sector is having a breakout year. The latest business developments
in solar and the other key renewable energy markets will be in the spotlight
at this year's international summit," said Griffith Kundahl, Director,
Global Programs, University of Denver.
The Nano Renewable Energy Summit is presented in conjunction with the Golden,
Colorado based National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). For information
