Event description

Join thousands of leaders — from business, government, solution providers, and startups — working together to address the climate crisis across six strategic areas: clean energy, sustainable transportation, carbon removal, regenerative food systems, net-zero buildings, and the startup ecosystem.

On October 25th, the Good Food Institute, the Breakthrough Institute, and GreenBiz will co-host a three-hour interactive tutorial designed to clarify where the field stands today and reflect on where it should go. It will allow entrepreneurs, investors, and business leaders to dig into the industry’s inflection point and collectively workshop strategic paths forward. Learn more about the tutorial for “Impossible? How Alternative Proteins Will Become a Mainstream Staple” here.
