Focus on Commercialization & growth.About this EventinnovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Port Innovation & Cleantech CommercialisationJoin us for the final strategic session of the Texas tour, innovationCAFE Corpus Christi. This event is specifically designed for leaders managing the Gulf Coast's coastal and industrial infrastructure—the epicenter of energy, petrochemicals, and logistics.The challenge is clear: how to manage the massive risk of energy transition while seizing the commercial opportunities presented by next-generation fuels (like hydrogen) and carbon management. This workshop provides the commercial and strategic blueprint for integrating these cleantech solutions directly into fixed-asset industrial systems.The Focus: Commercializing Green Hydrogen, Carbon Capture & Port AutomationThis session addresses the crucial link between the Commercialisation pillar and the Productivity imperative, focusing on the unique assets of the coastal gateway.Keynote and Policy Strategy: Hear from Cherie Jones (Commercialisation/Funding Strategist) and Damian Smyth (Productivity Expert). They will guide a discussion on how strategic capital and policy can be deployed to fund the transition, specifically focusing on the commercial viability of Port Modernization and new energy vectors in the Corpus Christi corridor.The Workshop: The session will culminate in a practical, action-focused workshop centered on the most critical question for Gulf Coast industry leaders:"What specific commercial models and supply chain partnerships are necessary to rapidly integrate and scale up new energy vectors (e.g., hydrogen, carbon capture) into the Corpus Christi's existing port and petrochemical infrastructure, turning regulatory risk into a long-term profit advantage?"Led by Adam Rogers (Workshop Facilitator), this segment focuses on defining a financially sound and operationally feasible path for sector evolution.The innovationCAFE ModelThis high-impact, two-and-a-half-hour event is structured around the CAFE principle of innovation:CollaborateAskFlowEvolveGain crucial strategic insights, debate the commercial risks and rewards of new energy technology, and network with influential professionals over quality coffee. Your collaboration will directly contribute to a key policy paper submitted to Government, ensuring the policy reflects the high-stakes, capital-intensive needs of the Gulf Coast gateway.Location: DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi BeachfrontSpeakers: Cherie Jones, Damian Smyth, Adam RogersDuration: 2.5 hoursAction: Define the commercial blueprint for integrating hydrogen, carbon capture, and smart logistics into the Gulf Coast energy gateway. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/corpus-christi/innovationcafe-corpus-christi-cleantech-innovation-and-energy-evolution/100001970098362235 - **Event Categories**: workshops, contests - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 2 - **Event Highlights**: - Age Limit: All Ages - Doors Open At: 8:00 AM - Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes - Location: DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Corpus Christi - **state**: TX - **country**: United States - **location**: DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront - **lat**: 27.8185612 - **long**: -97.3896721 - **full address**: DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront, 3200 Surfside Boulevard, Corpus Christi, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: innovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Cleantech Innovation & Energy Evolution - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/cc1c43b163780f8920180c09045d73b0a40608bbdd0346ebdf4e8ba437fa97c5-rimg-w853-h317-dc64614f-gmir.jpg?v=1769783699 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is innovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Cleantech Innovation & Energy Evolution being held? - **A:** innovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Cleantech Innovation & Energy Evolution takes place on Wed, 28 Oct, 2026 at 10:00 am to Wed, 28 Oct, 2026 at 12:30 pm at DoubleTree by Hilton Corpus Christi Beachfront, 3200 Surfside Boulevard, Corpus Christi, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing innovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Cleantech Innovation & Energy Evolution? - **A:** innovationCAFE Corpus Christi: Cleantech Innovation & Energy Evolution is organized by innovationCAFE. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
