Mapping the Green Corridor?s Assets

Net Impact UC Berkeley is partnering this fall with the Green Corridor to conduct an asset mapping of the region in the area of clean energy innovation and economic development. A student consulting team of five associates will gain insight on: what clean energy startup companies and businesses are here and what assets attracted them to the region? What are our regional advantages and where do gaps lie? And what opportunities exist for greater connectivity and cross-fertilization that will bring a competitive advantage?

The Green Corridor looks forward to working with this dynamic group that will issue a set of recommendations in December. This work will update the findings of UC Berkeley Professor Karen Chapple and her student team in 2009.

Net Impact is an international non-profit organization that provides consulting solutions to businesses.?The mission of the Haas School of Business?
