MIT Startup Exchange is working with IHS Markit and the MIT Energy Initiative to feature MIT Startups as speakers at the CERAWeek® Agora Innovation program, 9 - 12 March 2020, in Houston.
MIT Startup Exchange presents its September Startup Workshop, centered around real-world IoT and edge computing. Many companies are grappling with how to use IoT and data/AI in their organization to monitor, predict, improve, and transform what they do. Meanwhile, many MIT startups are developing and providing innovative technology solutions to answer these very questions for industry. This workshop will present perspectives from industry leaders, academics, and corporate investors, while also showcasing select MIT startups in the field.
