ClimateTech Days are held on the 1st and 3rd Thursday of every month (excepting major holidays). Participants must pre-register through this Luma calendar. Feel free to bring a brown bag lunch and join colleagues in a group lunch room between noon and 1pm.
Mentors and quarterbacks from the Venture Mechanics Catapult Program (incubator/accelerator) will hold office hours between 10am and 2pm on these biweekly coworking days, and they will join the group lunch as well.
