About this event

Two years ago, MaRS, in partnership with Natural Resources Canada, named six finalists for the Women in Cleantech Challenge, with each entrepreneur developing technologies to tackle the world’s most daunting environmental challenges and compete for the chance to win $1 million.

This September 11, these remarkable women come together once again to discuss their cleantech journeys — and you’re invited to the conversation. Learn about the finalists’ greatest challenges and successes, as well as how their novel products stand to better the planet for generations.
