Emerging Leaders

We are thrilled to once again offer the Emerging Leaders Program at VERGE, this year sponsored by Verizon.

The Emerging Leaders program aims to empower a diverse group of up-and-coming leaders by giving them a front-row seat to the emerging clean economy. We define diversity broadly – including gender and race, but also those who have faced socioeconomic, personal or other barriers to achieving their goals.
