Cohort 8 Finals Recordings
Event Details
Tune in to Chain Reaction Innovations (CRI) Finals Pitch Competition for Cohort 8. Learn about cutting-edge technologies that may potentially embed at Argonne National Laboratory as part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Lab-Embedded Entrepreneurship Program.
After a nationwide call for applications and a rigorous review process, 12 individuals advanced to the Finals pitch competition to join CRI’s next cohort. A broad range of innovations are represented in this year’s applicants, including energy storage, decarbonization, circular economy, quantum, manufacturing, and advanced materials.
The 13 startup founders will pitch their technology from 9 – 5 p.m. Central, April 12th at Argonne National Laboratory. The public is invited to watch this event virtually. Use this link to join the Zoom webinar.
