Join us Sept. 19 to 20 in Ottawa for an exciting dialogue with wood pellet and bioenergy experts from around the world topped off by our keynote address that will energize one and all.

He is president of the Ivey Foundation, chair of the Transition Accelerator, a senior fellow at the Institute for Sustainable Finance, and a guest lecturer at the University of Oxford’s Social Finance Program.
