Electric ity advances developmental factors such as small business development\, extended working hours\, access to communications\, enhanced education l evels and rural development. Energy can improve life of millions. \; \n \;\n \;\nIn developing countries access to energy remains const rained by factors such as limited access to well adapted affordable tech nology\, fragmented small markets\, prohibitive taxes and limited financ ial resources. On Dec 14th \, at the Copenhagen Climate conference the Obama Administration announced a $350 million dollar initiative dubbed “ Climate REDI” to promote clean energy technologies in developing countri es. \;\n \;\n \;\nJoin us on March 17th for a discussion wit h our expert panel\, on what kind of innovations in products\, finance\, supply and service can ensure reliable &\; affordable energy to the billions of poor across the world. \;\n \;\n \;\nOur 2 prese nters Michael(Kipp) Baratoff\, Principal\, Equilibrium Capital &\; P atrick Maloney\, Program Director\, Lemelson Foundation have been fully immersed in this space\, having been engaged with social entrepreneurs o ver the course of their careers.
