The Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI) and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) invite you to join us on Friday, October 7th to celebrate the official Grand Opening of the La Kretz Innovation Campus (LKIC).

 

LKIC is Los Angeles’ new cleantech industry hub – a place where entrepreneurs, engineers, scientists and policymakers can collaborate, promote and support the development of clean technologies and LA’s green economy. A fully renovated 60,000 square foot building located in the dynamic Arts & Innovation District of Downtown Los Angeles, the Campus comprises 3.2 acres and is owned by the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.

 

The campus is home to LACI, a cleantech incubator founded in 2011 as a cluster-driven economic development initiative supported by the City of Los Angeles, LADWP and Community Redevelopment Agency of Los Angeles. In just over four years LACI has become one of the leading cleantech incubators in the world.

 

The morning ribbon cutting program will feature remarks from Mayor Eric Garcetti, Members of the LA City Council, LADWP Leadership, philanthropist Morton La Kretz and notable local innovators. The celebration will continue throughout the day with company pitches, technology demonstrations and exhibits, and into the early evening with networking receptions, live entertainment, food trucks, and more.
