The MIT Energy Conference will be back on campus on February 23-24, 2026, with a new edition themed “Securing the Energy Future: Resources for Resilience”. A core feature of the conference is the Innovators Forum, a curated showcase where cutting-edge startups and research initiatives in energy and climate present their technologies to industry leaders, investors, entrepreneurs, researchers, and students.
Digital transformation is revolutionizing the way enterprises develop, produce, promote, and distribute products and services. By integrating digital technologies into their operations and processes, organizations can foster innovation, boost productivity, and unlock significant value.
