CAMBRIDGE, MA—Mintz will host its fourth annual Energy Transition Summit: Shaping Our Energy Future – The Path Forward on October 27. The Summit will bring together nearly 150 leaders from across the public and private sectors for a day focused on the technologies driving the energy transition and the legal and financial structures supporting their growth. Held at The Engine, MIT’s accelerator for breakthrough technologies, the Summit will kick off Tough Tech Week 2025, a multi-day celebration of innovation in Cambridge’s tech ecosystem.
Set in Cambridge’s innovation corridor, this year’s program will explore how policy, investment, and emerging technologies are reshaping the energy landscape.
