SUMMARY:Leadership in the Olympic Movement in Canada with Tricia Smith
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating its sixth year\, the 2020-21 Lougheed College Lectures are organized around the theme of leadership and public institutions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this Event\n\n\nThe 2020-21 Lougheed College Lecture series is organized around the theme of leadership and public institutions. Governments\, courts\, universities\, cultural institutions\, public health agencies\, financial regulators and other offices charged with ensuring the public good face special scrutiny from the people they serve. We expect our tax-funded institutions to deliver value for money\, and to act ethically and responsibly to ensure citizen well-being. And we have high demands for accountability and responsiveness. What does it take to lead such organizations\, especially when the decisions are fraught and the stakes are high? How do public leaders engage the people they serve in decision-making? How do they address dissent and controversy? What are the consequences of “fake news\,” the growing skepticism around expertise\, and political polarization for the necessary work of serving the public good? Our speakers will tackle these challenging issues with hard-won insights from the front lines. \nTricia Smith addresses the topic\, Leadership in the Olympic Movement in Canada as a featured guest of the Lougheed College Lectures.\nFrom doping to bribery; expense and politics\, and tensions over the COVID postponement of the 2020 games\, the Olympic movement has had to deal with some serious reputational blowback. To our credit\, Canadians have been at the forefront of upholding Olympic values against some significant challenges. Join PLLC to hear Tricia Smith

SUMMARY:CleanTech Pitch Night
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Platform Calgary and Foresight \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin for a night of pitches and networking with the cleantech companies in the Foresight x Platform Calgary program! \nAbout this Event\nForesight and Platform Calgary are pleased to invite you to the third edition of Cleantech Pitch Night! \nCleantech Pitch Night connects early-stage companies with the local cleantech ecosystem\, including investors\, community partners\, industry and fellow cleantech startup companies. \nJoin this exciting event and hear from the latest and greatest cleantech ventures that are set to compete and win in emerging technologies. \nAgenda \n\n\n4:30 PM – Welcome and Introductions \n\n\n4:35 PM – Pitches and Breakout Rooms #1 \n\n\n4:55 PM – Investment Panel Discussion \n\n\n5:15 PM – Pitches and Breakout Rooms #2 \n\n\n5:35 PM – Pitches and Breakout Rooms #3 \n\n\n5:55 PM – Closing Remarks \n\n\nLocation \n\n\nZoom (link will be provided after registration) \n\n\nGet to know the startups \n\n\nBee Energy is a startup based on large scale graphene production. Bee Energy provides graphene consumers with low cost and high-quality graphene-based materials for their applications. Bee Energy’s primary competitive advantage is lower graphene production duration (~1 day)\, patent pending technology\, and graphene tunability for specific use such as high-temperature stability (800 ⁰C). \n\n\nThe Harvest Hub manufactures indoor soil-based growing equipment and smart farm technology for operational excellence. \n\n\nOnsite RSL is a revolutionary approach to onsite remediation of salt impacted contaminated material eliminating hauling to land fill and associated GHG associated with the trucking. The initial focus is oil and gas contaminated sites. \n\n\nOkos works with developers\, real estate managers\, and utility companies to bring the latest smart home technology to Canadians. Automate heating\, cooling\, lighting\, and more with affordable IoT solutions. \n\n\nSEPPURE creates a new generation of nano-filters to revolutionize industrial chemical separation in multiple markets by reducing energy consumption and pollution substantially. Separation processes account for up to 90% of capital and operating costs in the industry. The heat used in industry to separate chemical mixtures accounts for up to 15% of the planet’s entire energy consumption. SEPPURE replaces energy-intensive chemical separations such as distillation and evaporation across multiple industries. \n\n\nVDQ-NRG is re-purposing landfill waste into alternative energy sources and valuable byproducts\, with a focus on being economically viable and environmentally sustainable. \n\n\nZILA Works: You know how we as a society have come to rely on plastics for almost everything\, yet most plastics today are harmful to our health and bad for the environment? ZILA Works has solved this by creating a bioplastic made from industrial hemp. Imagine if we could use a plastic replacement that is safer for consumers\, helps farmers\, and is good for the environment. \n\n\nZoramat Solutions is developing a specialty chemical\, Zoralite\, that behaves like a molecular sponge to soak up target gases\, while letting other gases through. Then\, like wringing out the sponge\, heat or vacuum is applied to the material to remove a near pure stream of the target gas. Zoralite is being deployed in the carbon capture\, biogas or renewable natural gas\, and ammonia markets to perform target gas separations and purifications more efficiently with lower energy requirements and smaller facilities. \n\n\nAbout Foresight \nForesight is a not-for-profit corporation that fosters the growth of SMEs that are developing technology that improves environmental results and reduce GHG emissions. \n\n\n\n\nregsiter
