Innovation Summit


Message to the Smart Energy Decisions Innovation Summit Community,

As many of you know, this business is very personal to us at Smart Energy Decisions. Our team works hard every day committed to our motto “Your Success is Our Business”.

In light of developing circumstances regarding the (COVID-19) coronavirus, it is with disappointment that we announced the postponement of the 2020 Smart Energy Decisions Innovation Summit scheduled to take place in Houston, March 9-11.

Despite continued advice from local government and health authorities that the City of Houston remains open for business, attendee cancelations leading up to the event due to (COVID-19) coronavirus related travel restrictions accelerated greatly and we anticipate they would have continued. We are convinced that the event would not meet your expectations or our standards if the event were held as planned.

Over the next few weeks, we’ll work with our Advisory Board and the community to determine the feasibility of announcing new dates in 2020 for the Innovation Summit to take place so we can provide the experience, connections and information that you have come to expect at Smart Energy Decisions events.

With Gratitude,

John Failla
