Clean tech startups gets support in recession
By Mass High Tech staff
MHT reporter Efrain Viscarolasaga on NECN: Green tech brings jobs back to Mass.
The Clean Technology & Sustainable Industries Organization has launched “cleanConnect,” a Cambridge-based program intended to help startups in clean technology flourish in the current recession.
The cleanConnect program includes free membership for eligible companies to share resources, develop partnerships, generate funding and foster policy advocacy.
Patricia Glaza, executive director and CEO of CTSI, said in a statement that the program aims to continue the progress made in energy, water and environmental technology before the recession hit and ensure these developments don’t suffer.
CTSI officials have said that cleanConnect members will have “priority access to the association’s annual Washington, D.C. policy tour” with access to congressional and agency representatives. The association’s annual event also gives members a networking opportunity with investors and Fortune 500 corporations.
