“I’m pleased to play a role in bringing this important event to the Chicago area,” said Deivasigamani. “Intellihot’s people and unique products are making a tremendous contribution to the clean technology ideals of CTLR. Forums such as this allow us to share and learn from peers who are doing the same.”
With Mr. Deivasigamani other event hosts are: Amy Francetic, managing general partner and co-founder of Buoyant Ventures; Howard A. Learner, president and executive director of the Environmental Law & Policy Center; Erik G. Birkerts, CEO of Evergreen Climate Innovations; and Priya Parrish, partner and CIO of Impact Engine.
Look at fiberglass manufacturers, when it was initially developed, it was a wonder material. They had material as well as no market competition. They got to a specific size and quit looking for brand-new usages for fiberglass.
They are currently seeing themselves be eaten up by alternative remedies for items like fiberglass insulation that is taking increasingly more market share yearly. Where they used to be viewed as the leaders, they are now merely a provider of an asset.
