What does a day in the life of the Director of Programs of Greentown Go look like?
Here's the cleaned transcript:
Greentown Go is a startup corporate partnerships accelerator program. Giant corporations work with us in a matchmaking program between them and startup companies.
Corporations want to meet their net-zero sustainability goals. Startups often sell products to or through a corporation to scale and commercialize.
Greentown Go was built as a matchmaker program. We work with corporates and startups to run a six-month accelerator program.
Every day looks different, which is part of what I like. Some days are heads down, doing data work. Some days involve writing and drafting emails or briefings.
Other days we have big events with a lot of hosting and public speaking. There's a lot of variety, and every day truly looks different. It's a mix of strategic and tactical tasks.
