Moffett Field / NASA Ames / Mountain View, CA

Please join us, and your Cleantech Open community, at the epic NASA Ames campus to launch the biggest year of cleantech innovation yet.

Three competitions and challenges will be on the launch pad. The Cleantech Open Business Accelerator & Competition, the Global Youth Challenge and the NASA Night Rover Challenge start their trajectories on this stellar evening. Meet the people who count in cleantech in Silicon Valley and the world beyond.

It’s an exciting evening of interactive exhibits and unbeatable networking. Wine will flow, hors d’oeuvres will be passed and new connections will be made.

Come to the 2012 Launch Party to:

• Track the future of cleantech technology at our Alumni Expo
