Conference #1 of 2024 in the books! It was a pleasure to speak at Cleantech Forum this year in San Diego to share more about DG Matrix's revolutionary technology and vision for a sustainable, electrified future. A few highlights / takeaways from the conference: 1. Cleantech startups aren't just for Silicon Valley; new innovation hubs across the country and the world are emerging as major players. It was incredible to meet founders from all over, from major hubs like New York and Silicon Valley, budding ecosystems like Houston and Raleigh, and from as far away as New Zealand. 2. Cost is king. If we want to deploy sustainable solutions at scale, they must be cost-effective. Major customers will always be cost-conscious, so it's imperative to deliver better technology with a better experience at a better price. 3. We need more talent! The cleantech ecosystem is buzzing with excitement and with opportunities, especially for recent grads and new entrants looking to use their skills to create an impact on sustainability. Get after it, y'all! I'm looking forward to being back at Cleantech Forum in 2025! #conference #energy #emobility #startups #cleantech Cleantech Group
