What happens when four massive technologies collide? VERGE describes the convergence of four technologies — energy, information, buildings, and transportation — and the economic, environmental, and social benefits this convergence will bring to business and society. It brings together cleantech, sustainable business, and smart everything -- from machine-to-machine communications, to the smart grid, to sustainable mobility systems, to the design and operation of cities -- to create a high-efficiency world.    The purpose of this seminar wil be to share this vision with the teams from LBL and solicit feedback on how VERGE jibes with LBL's real-world projects.
