Earlier this month, DOE’s Lab-Embedded Entrepreneurship Program (LEEP), managed by AMMTO, welcomed its 2024 cohort to its headquarters in Washington, D.C. to kick off their two-year fellowships. These fellows have early-stage clean energy startups and/or emerging technologies, and through LEEP, DOE and its national laboratories will provide support to develop and transition the fellows’ ideas into the market.  

During the two-day event, the fellows met with respective DOE offices that fund them and witnessed an informative fireside chat between AMMTO Director Christopher Saldaña and LEEP alumni. The fellows also pitched their innovations during an invigorating lightning round session, and heard from other DOE funded programs including Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer programs and American Made Network.  

Congratulations to the 2024 LEEP Cohort! We look forward to your future accomplishments.

The mission of LEEP is to train the next generation of clean tech entrepreneurs to develop and commercialize game-changing technologies for a clean energy future.
