Chesapeake Bay Green Entrepreneur Roundtable

​Please join us on Zoom to hear from several entrepreneurs addressing ecological and collective health in communities across the Chesapeake Bay watershed. This online space is intended to highlight environmental and social entrepreneurs, helping to connect them to resources, build awareness of their work, and amplify their current needs (including funding, partnership-building, customer introductions, team-building, and more). 

​The agenda of entrepreneurs will be published as it is finalized.

​This online event is open to all. If any of the below describe you, you will likely find this series of calls helpful:

• ​You are interested in understanding novel and entrepreneurial approaches to ecological and social challenges in the watershed.

• ​You are seeking to build partnerships and collaborate with ecological and social entrepreneurs the Chesapeake Bay watershed.

• ​You are interested in finding an internship or job with an organization working on ecological or social challenges.

• ​You want to fund novel and entrepreneurial approaches to ecological and social challenges.

​Each entrepreneur will speak for no more than 7 minutes each and will end their portion with a summary of their needs. Examples of needs might include talent, fundraising, customer intros, stakeholder and government connections, etc. Q&A for each entrepreneur will happen after all presentations in breakout rooms.

​The value of this event is in increasing connectivity between different stakeholders in the regional climate and entrepreneurship ecosystems. By holding this call, we hope to facilitate connections between entrepreneurs, supporters, funders, government, community members, and more. 

​We intend to hold this event on regular basis going forward. Entrepreneurs interested in participating in future roundtables should email Scott Christensen at schris14@umd.edu.
