Electro-Federation Canada’s 2018 conference will feature leading Industry speakers, a two-day business-to-business head office program, EFC’s 2018 Research Report “Digital Supply Chain Excellence,” valuable networking opportunities, and an unforgettable BC golf experience at Furry Creek Golf Course.Opening keynote speaker will be Tom Rand, Cleantech investor, advisor, speaker and author of “Waking the Frog” and “Kick the Fossil Fuel Habit.” Clean disruption is coming and our industry is on the right side of change. Despite good intentions, our global economy is on a collision course with extreme climate change. Yet we remain paralyzed. Why? Tom Rand will discusses the opportunities of clean tech for the Canadian electrical industry and explore underlying reasons that keep global citizens from acting with effort to solve the climate change problem, from the psychology of denial to a deep and inherent conservatism in the business community.
