The MIT Energy Conference (MITEC) has grown to be one of the premier energy events in the country and will be held on the 5^th and 6^th of March 2010 at the Boston Sheraton Hotel. The conference has much to offer to entrepreneurs interested in energy and we hope that you will consider attending.  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.

With less than a month until the conference and preparations kicking into high gear, we are thrilled to offer you an overview of our exciting agenda.  To purchase your ticket and see a more detailed description of the conference, please visit our website at http://www.mitenergyconference.com
