Join us for WRA’s Inaugural Dolphin Tank! Akin to a Shark Tank but more mentor than munch, our Dolphins will provide insights, guidance and support to our Water Tech Fishes.
Doors, and the bar, open at 4 pm. Pitches start at 4:30 pm. After the program, everyone is invited to stay for happy hour to continue the conversation with our startups, judges, friends and colleagues working in water, energy, and climatetech.
Your registration includes appetizers, two drink tickets, and unlimited inspiration.
Registration is closed, but please join us and you can register at the door!
