Will You Be There When...?

Take note of what Google CEO Eric Schmidt just said:

"I could imagine a smart garage where I would plug in my car and the computer handles it. I could even make money by cost shifting. It sure sounds to me like a problem for the Internet...and personal computers. It's the largest opportunity I could possibly imagine. It solves energy security, energy prices and job creation."

Here’s why: in 4 weeks, I’ll be networking and learning at the annual Lux Executive Summit outside Harvard Square in Cambridge, MA. There are some very important speakers with some big announcements being made.



I’m fond of saying the best way to predict the future is to invent it. Here’s who’s inventing it and who you need to know:



Dean Kamen is an inventor extraordinaire. Watch him basically turn dirt into water. And if you haven’t heard Shai Agassi speak, you must. He was set to be CEO of SAP but threw it away to become founder of Better Place. Having raised hundreds of millions of dollars—he is mission-bent on making Israel the first all-electric car country. Other countries and states are signing up. You basically get the car for free and subscribe to it—like some cell phone plans. Shai will be featured at Lux’s event.



Now, if you believe water is the new oil, you must hear straight from CEO of GE Water, Jeff Garwood. It’s a $2 billion unit of GE. And of course: love him or hate him, but Lux will also host US Senator John Kerry weighing in privately on the high-tech economy and the Presidential election.



Meanwhile Roger Duncan will share the future of energy. He runs the 9th largest public power utilities in the country at Austin Energy. While Bob Metcalfe—he’s been turning algae into energy--and Genome Guru Craig Venter’s new company Synthetic Genomics will both be speaking too.



Nobel Prize winner Harry Kroto will be there and the Lux Research analysts will be releasing new market moving data. It’s nearly booked out. But register here to secure a seat!
