“Aside from hosting the signature events described, CleanTech OC also cohosted an educational program for start-up CEO's (with 175 attendees), and three networking receptions (150 attendees on average) for the regional industry. Other programs offered to local companies are more informal in nature, and involve staff meeting with companies to determine their needs for achieving the company's next growth milestone, and connecting such companies with potential resources to achieve that growth (investors, potential customers, and other opportunities for increased industry visibility). Since these services are rendered during staff time there is no budget or dollar amount associated with offering such services, but is instead a general activity as part of our mission.”
