The Centre for Urban Energy (CUE) at Ryerson University is celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2021. To mark the occasion and to thank all of our incredible supporters and alumni, we're bringing back our popular Expo event – this time restyled in an online format. Please join us for an informative and inspiring day of clean energy research, innovation and education featuring welcoming remarks from Ryerson President Mohamed Lachemi and a very special guest speaker, Praveer Sinha, CEO of Tata Power. There will also be panel discussions, presentations and networking opportunities, with virtual booths by Clean Energy Zone startups plus a few birthday surprises along the way!
