Background:
This year's Energy Showcase will focus on Energy in the Developing World. Globally, 1.2 Billion people lack access to electricity, a huge opportunity both to improve lives and to build businesses. At the same time, the huge industrial production and growing middle classes of China, India, Brazil and other developing world economies led BP to predict that 95% of the growth in the world's energy use between today and 2035 will come in non-OECD countries, with China and India alone accounting for over 50%. This spring, the SEC will bring practitioners on the ground and expert commentators to campus to give Stanford students the information they need in order to understand and work in this energy future. The showcase consists of three evening events focused on Finance, Policy, and Technology.
