Movers and shakers from the energy industry are getting together to create less friction and more of a spark in their corner of the world.

The first Energy Technology Forum is set to kick off tonight at Ann Arbor SPARK's Central Business Incubator, 330 E Liberty St. The sold-out event will allow people from all corners of the energy industry to mingle, network and possibly come up with a solution or two.

"We're hoping to bring together a number of different segments of the energy sector," says Mike Medvec, chairman of the steering committee for the Energy Technology Forum. "We're trying to create some synergies."

The thought is that more people from the old energy crowd rubbing elbows with the innovators in alternative energy will help the two different ends of the same sector collaborate more often. The forum will be held again next month. For information, call (734) 761-9317 or send an email to Susanna@AnnArborUSA.org.
