Tuesday September 15th It’s Hopenhagen Time!
What do people around the world think about the threat of climate change and the promise of a new clean economy? Are they informed about the international negotiations in Copenhagen? If clean energy doesn’t become a kitchen table issue, will the negotiations succeed? Some of the world’s biggest advertising companies are putting aside their rivalries to collaborate on a new global campaign – Hopenhagen – about the hope of a green and prosperous future. Will they have any impact? How can they reach people outside the “environmental elite?” Experts discuss what’s at stake. Commonwealth Club Office Students free (with valid ID and registration) |

Each Spring and Fall, Virgance brings together its members, volunteers, fans, friends and team who make this social venture possible. This is a great opportunity to mingle with social entrepreneurs, business and non-profit leaders, activists and political figures in the Bay Area who are combining forces to bring sustainability to every aspect of life and business.
This month, Net Impact is hosting a new event concept: “Cleantech Shark Tank: Financing Options for Cleantech Entrepreneurs.” We’ve invited panelists (“sharks”) from Microfinance, Venture Capital, Angel Investing, and the Federal Government to help cleantech startups determine “Where should I look for funding?” Cleantech entrepreneurs will be given 2 minutes to pitch their company or idea to our panel , then the sharks will share their advice on which source of funding is the best option. Audience members are encouraged to share their thoughts and ask questions throughout, so this promises to be a highly interactive and lively event!
