Call for Artists

Nominations will be accepted through July 8.

“Art is born of the observation and investigation of nature.” - Marcus Tullius Cicero

GreenBiz is excited to showcase the work of a select number of artists to illuminate the themes behind this groundbreaking event.

VERGE 22, taking place at the San Jose Convention Center, Oct. 25-27, will attract over four thousand leaders, all primed for innovation and inspiration in their work to address the climate crisis across six strategic areas: clean energy, sustainable transportation, carbon removal, regenerative food systems, net-zero buildings and the startup ecosystem.

Consider this: How can art help us better understand climate solutions or community resilience? How can we apply emerging technologies like augmented reality and artificial intelligence to create a more regenerative economy? How can the vision of a sustainable, socially just world be expressed through performance?

Call for Submissions

GreenBiz is excited to showcase the work of a select number of artists to illuminate the themes behind this groundbreaking event.

We are accepting nominations in three categories (see below), as they relate to the event’s focus: how climate tech can accelerate solutions to the most pressing challenges of our time. Even if you have an idea that doesn’t fit neatly into any of these categories, we’d still like to hear about it.

Please note that while GreenBiz will waive exhibitor fees, we have a limited budget and cannot commission new works. We prefer interactive and experiential pieces and have space on stage, inside and outside to feature them.


Nominations will be accepted through July 8.

PERFORMANCES: Live music, dance, slam poetry and theater that bring stories and concepts to life.
