FUEL CHOICES SUMMIT

TEL AVIV, NOVEMBER 12-13, 2013

The First Annual Conference
Israel has set an ambitious goal: reduce its use of oil for transportation by 60% in less than 20 years.  Hosted by the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office and Bloomberg, the Fuel Choices Summit will explore the challenges, opportunities, and implications of this effort.  This gathering of finance, government and business leaders will examine Israel’s role as a center for research and innovation in fuel choices. Participants will discuss how new investments, global coalitions and policy decisions will play out in the region and around the world.
The $1 Million Prize
As part of the conference, the Eric and Sheila Samson Prime Minister’s Prize for Innovation in Alternative Fuels for Transportation will be awarded for global innovation or a scientific or technological breakthrough in the field of alternative fuels for transportation.  This $1 million annual award will be comparable to the Nobel Prize for energy research.
