Who are industry insiders?

Our industry insiders are not journalists, they are professionals who are working in the clean technology industry that write about what they are learning, seeing or experience.

If you want to be an industry insider there are only a couple, simple critera.

1) You live and/or work is primarily in the Boston, New England area.

2) You work in clean technology, or you work is strongly related to it. For example, a lawyer focusing on clean tech innovation.

3) You have something interesting to say.
