Open Project Night Houston: Climate Action

Impact Hub Houston brings you Open Project Night, a monthly opportunity to come together to work on solutions for some of Houston's most pressing issues. Our city is full of changemakers across all ages, cultures, skillsets, and industries. This is your chance to connect and collaborate for the greater good.

Here's how it works:

• New theme each month in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
• For the month of June we'll be focusing on SDG 13: Climate Action
• Anyone can sign up to participate (whether you have an idea/project or just want to provide feedback, advice, or support)
• 1-2 guest speakers will kick-off project presentations
• Open Mic for anyone else to pitch will follow (2 min max per pitch)
• Everyone moves around the room for open networking & collaboration

Open Mic Format:

1. Brief personal introduction + What is your project/idea?
2. What stage are you currently at? (idea/testing/implementation etc)
3. What are your next series of steps?
4. What are you currently looking for in the way of talent/skills from the community?

**No slides. Just verbal with large post-it paper visual. We will provided materials.**

The Global Goals can only be met if we work together. Investments and support is needed to ensure innovative technological development, fair trade, and market access in Houston. To build a better world, we need to be supportive, empathetic, inventive, passionate, and above all, cooperative.
