Our Recent History in the Context of This New Opportunity Since 2014, we have entered an age of large scale public debates on the best ways to address competition and competitive advantages in an age of carbon and capital constraints. To date, we have organized nine workshops in this area, each consisting of six to nine key speakers. Under the name Carbon & Innovation, we reshaped and widened the membership under an expanded domain. We now meet as The Energy Innovation and Carbon Competitiveness Working Group. Our discussions are confidential and facilitated under Chatham House Rules. With the generous support of key Sponsors like CH2M, DTE, Cenovus, Suncor Energy, Ingersoll Rand, Flex, First Energy, Greenbrier and others, we have grown this working group. It has matured, and is stable in value and reach. Our working group is dedicated to identifying a set of solutions. Our shared ambitions are: Useful Focused Facilitated Dialogue among Leaders Discernment of Best Options that are Doable/Reliable Frontier Thinking Illuminating Innovation Early Formation of B to B Innovation Paths Between Members Arranging One on One Dual Company On-Site meetings along the purpose of this workshop Fostering the Prospect of Unique Alliances Helping Rehearse the Solutions Internally and Before Senior Leadership Benchmarking the Best Programs Moving Forward into the Public.
