SUMMARY:It’s Not the Product—It’s the Pitch: Marketing Innovation that Sells
DESCRIPTION:Innovation doesn’t sell itself—marketing does. This engaging session unpacks how success hinges not on the brilliance of an idea\, but on how well it’s positioned in the market. \nThrough courtroom drama\, toy industry insights\, and real-world wins like the $350M baby monitor boom\, we explore why people buy benefits\, not products. Drawing from years of experience working with DOE and LLNL\, the session also highlights how students helped commercialize lab and university tech into million-dollar startups. From robotic cats to national lab IP\, LESI’s High Tech Committee webinar will show why great marketing beats great ideas—every time.

SUMMARY:HILT CRC public webinar: Beyond electrolysis – novel technologies to lower the cost of renewable hydrogen
DESCRIPTION:Hydrogen generated from renewable sources is seen as a key enabler for heavy industry decarbonisation\, particularly for green steel production. However\, with increasing numbers of hydrogen projects around the world being deferred or cancelled\, there is an increasing focus on the cost and scale up of hydrogen produced using electrolysis\, currently the dominant technology for green hydrogen. As a result\, there is increasing interest in emerging alternative technologies that could reduce costs and accelerate deployment. \nThis webinar explores innovative approaches to hydrogen generation\, focusing on photocatalytic and photoelectrochemical water splitting – technologies that have the potential to deliver significant cost reductions in clean hydrogen production. We’ll also take a brief look at thermochemical and methane pyrolysis routes. \nLearn more and register here: https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/55e77009-ad0d-49b2-b6a5-b88ca7b92b67@624f7526-1cda-4dc6-8b7f-28e9ac912dc3
