DUKE UNIVERSITY ENERGY CONFERENCE
Wednesday, November 9, 2022
9:00 AM – 4:30 PM EST
How will private and public sector entities actually achieve ambitious climate goals over the coming decades? At the 13th annual Duke University Energy Conference, we’ll take an honest look at what’s necessary to realize climate commitments. We invite industry professionals to join students and faculty from Duke and other Research Triangle universities in this exploration, which will feature insights from thought leaders in the public and private sectors.
Current Duke University undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and staff are invited to learn and network in-person at the Conference by joining us at the Fuqua School of Business—even if you can only come for part of the time! Lunch and a light breakfast will be provided for you to enjoy outside the Fox Center. Industry professionals and university students and faculty across the world are invited to join us virtually for these exciting conversations.
