EnergyTech is an initiative, delivered in partnership by Opportunity North East, Barclays Eagle Labs and CodeBase, to bring together major players in the energy industry alongside businesses that can challenge and disrupt the mindset and culture to catalyse a more digitally focused energy sector.
The ambition is to drive collaboration and new agile ways of working across large energy companies and the digital sector, facilitating new digital approaches to energy industry challenges.
The EnergyTech initiative will see the energy and digital sectors partner on leadership and innovation, build a community of sector professionals with specific domain knowledge to tackle challenges faced by the industry and drive peer to peer learning with a better understanding of the benefits of a digitalised energy industry.
The 12-month rolling programme will include monthly meetups, mentorship and executive training and will bring all players together: startups, incumbents and industry institutions into a safe, innovative space to level up. Although virtual initially, the ONE Tech Hub in Aberdeen will be the home of EnergyTech, placing it and its network strategically at the heart of the UK’s energy industry transition.
How to get involved
The initiative has started with the community build phase - this phase allows us to develop the programme with partners and industry.
