Creative Destruction Lab - Oceans: 2023-2024 Cohort
7:45 a.m. - 6:15 p.m.
Cambridge, Massachusetts (The Engine)
The Oceans Stream at Creative Destruction Lab (CDL) is a leading global ocean accelerator program for massively scalable, seed-stage, science- and technology-based companies. The program employs an objectives-based mentoring process by a curated group of accomplished entrepreneurs, angel investors, economists, and scientists who are active in the ocean industry. CDL startup founders work with these mentors to sharpen objectives, prioritize time and resources, raise capital, and engage with experts working on the frontiers of research.
Monitoring, reporting and verification for mCDR technical roadmap workshop
9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m.
Cambridge, Massachusetts (TBD)
The workshop will bring together up to 30 experts to initiate a technology roadmap for Measurement, Reporting and Verification (MRV) for marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR). The roadmap will focus on required technology development to effectively implement MRV. IEEE will provide support to facilitate the meeting and create the roadmaps, as well as host and distribute the reports/roadmaps after the meeting. The desired MRV for mCDR roadmap is intended to complement and extend the existing mCDR Roadmaps developed by Ocean Visions. Hosted by IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society.
