Hydrogen has been recognized as a key pillar of decarbonizing the global energy system, with application across numerous sectors including transportation, heavy industry and energy storage. Indeed, it is anticipated that the use of clean hydrogen will avoid up to 60 Gt of CO2 emissions over the next 30 years (IEA). Developing the policy, technology and commercial solutions necessary to realize the full potential of hydrogen is not for the weak-hearted. In this webinar, we’ll hear from leading women experts who are paving the way forward for a hydrogen economy and discuss the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead.
About the series
The C3E webinar series provides a forum to hear the latest on clean energy topics from women who are making a difference. The goal of the quarterly webinars is to highlight the outstanding work of clean energy professionals in various fields and to foster discussion around clean energy opportunities and solutions.
Get to know the work of today’s leaders, including C3E Ambassadors and recent Awardees, by participating in an upcoming webinar, followed by a discussion session, allowing participants to ask the speakers questions, share their own ideas and experiences, engage in conversation, and network with other clean energy professionals.

Join us at Greentown Boston on Wednesday, July 26 for an event that will explore the convergence of human health and climatetech at the lab bench.
These two topics have significant overlap; climate change has had and will continue to have huge impacts on public health. This is just one of the intersections we see in Greentown Boston's 26-bench, BSL-2 wet lab, which is home to startups creating everything from alternative meats, to energy-efficient air conditioning, to metabolic assays. In this shared, multidisciplinary lab, our startups innovate in chemistry, biology, materials science, and much more.
This July, we’re bringing together experts in the fields of climatetech and public health for an insightful panel discussion. Whether you are a lab bench scientist looking for your place in the climate movement or are simply excited about exploring the intersection of these fields, this event is for you!
On this panel, you will hear from researchers, entrepreneurs, and nonprofit leaders who are at the forefront of innovation in both human health and climate change mitigation; gain valuable insights from their experiences; and explore the potential of cross-disciplinary collaborations.
Together, we can find innovative ways to mitigate the impact of climate change on public health and promote a healthier, more resilient future.

10:00 to 10:30 AM: Networking over coffee and light breakfast*
10:30 to 11:10 AM: Panel discussion
