Working on an idea or early-stage startup in climate that you would like to get MCJ community feedback on? Looking to see what MCJ Members are working on behind the scenes, and contribute your opinion? 

Each Idea Jam is centered around a certain theme: 

The goal? That these sessions provide a chance for MCJ members to get help with roadblocks, meet co-founders or future employees,  connect with investors, or people working on similar topics. For people just listening in, these sessions may spark your own ideas, and in the process enable you to meet others!
