Announcing a Special Lunch Speaker: Jeremy Rifkin

His most recent work, “The Third Industrial Revolution: How Lateral Power Is Transforming Energy, the Economy, and the World”, is a thought-provoking vision of how the intersection of clean energy and the internet will help spur a new global, economic paradigm.

Happy New Year from WHEC2012 Organizers

As we head towards the end of 2011, the organizers of WHEC2012 would like to express our best wishes for the holiday season and new year. We would like to especially thank our partners, sponsors and WHEC2012 participants for their valuable support to date.
WHEC2012 is heading into the new year with great momentum. More than 65% of the event exhibition has been sold, we have a excellent line-up of sponsors and supporters, and we enjoyed an overwhelming response to our recent call for abstracts!
In the new year, we look forward to announcing new plenary speakers, revealing a preliminary conference program, and announcing more excellent aspects of the WHEC2012 conference.
Again, happy new year and thank you again for your interest and support.
