Why is it exploding now and what are the forces driving its expansion? These are the questions we answer on day 1 of our immersion program on The Future of Energy. We explain how entrepreneurs are capitalizing on the emergence of new technologies and trends to build a cleaner, greener future less reliant on fossil fuels DAY 2:  EXPLOITING MARKET NICHES The journey continues on day two with an exploration of the limits of the disruption to the energy sector as they exist today. How many areas are seeing radical change? What is the nature of this change and how fast is it moving? We answer these questions through visits to startups operating in a wide range of niches. DAY 3:  EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES FOR ENERGY Day three of the immersion program is dedicated to the technologies fueling the disruption of the energy sector. We hear from experts in artificial intelligence and machine learning, robotics, blockchain and internet of things to learn what these technologies can currently do and what they will offer in the future.  DAY 4:  MCORPORATE INNOVATION IN ENERGY Having seen and heard how digital is disrupting the retail industry on days 1 to 3, on day 4 of our immersion program we challenge attendees to turn words into action. Participatory workshops with leading Silicon Valley experts on design thinking, design sprints, venture capital and open innovation provide executives with the blueprints and frameworks they need to deliver innovation within their own organization. We analyze how governments and legacy companies are reacting to demands for a carbon-neutral future and look at the steps they are taking to reach that goal in collaboration with the startup ecosystem..  DAY 5:  THE FUTURE OF ENERGY What’s next for the digital disruption of energy? Day 5 brings the program to a close with its sights firmly set on the future. We learn about trends still in their infancy and meet the companies seeking to capitalize on those trends. Will our homes one day be powered exclusively by clean energy? Could artificial intelligence guide our energy usage and drive efficiency gains? We discuss these and other pressing questions and find out which areas of the energy industry will be reimagined next thanks to emerging technologies.  What's Included: * Program participation * Transfers between company visits * Lunches (Mon-Fr)   * Hotel Accommodation (6 nights) Not Included * Airfare tickets If you prefer to book and pay for your own accommodation, contact us to request a registration code.
