Description
Career to Green"
SDForum is delighted to announce the fourth program in its
evening series on, "Transitioning Your Career to Green," devoted
to exploring the issues and highlighting the instrumental
players in this burgeoning industry that spans technologies and
businesses and impacts entrepreneurs, tech executives, investors
and other stakeholders. This series will focus on how careers
are being transitioned from hardware and software technology
into green and clean careers.
Overview: The program will focus on how traditional technology
professionals and executives have made the career leap into
clean and green. Transitioning from software into solar is a
feasible alternative, as is going from hardware to wind power.
But neither can transition to biofuels. What and where are the
opportunities to successfully transition? What are the
challenges and barriers faced by professionals looking to make
the change? What is the perspective from the venture community
and executive recruiters? Our panel will provide insights into
how they made the transition and the actionable advice they are
giving to others who are looking to jump into green and clean
careers.
