I’m hitting up a couple of events this week Thursday:
MaRS Best Practices Series
Buildings are responsible for more than half of urban carbon emissions. Greening our buildings is clearly a cleantech priority – but what does “green” mean? Which technologies work, and which are window-dressing? What’s possible by economic argument alone? This talk will take you through the technologies, decisions and problems of transforming a derelict building on our very own College Street into a modern, clean and green hotel. By “green” we mean an 80 per cent reduction of carbon emissions from business as usual. Planet Traveler will be “North America’s Greenest Hotel.” Planet Traveler: green, or green-washed?
Mobile Experience Innovation Centre Event
A half-day forum to further the conversation in mobile innovation, we will be looking towards the future of the mobile experience. Join us for an afternoon of engaging discussion with industry leaders and researchers.
If you are around, don’t be afraid to say hi. Both are shaping up to be a fun afternoon.
