NEW YORK, NY/SAN JOSE, CA--As part of its commitment to invest $50 million in skills-based pro bono professional services, Deloitte today announced one of its first Silicon Valley pro bono clients, The Tech Museum of Innovation (The Tech), a nonprofit hands-on technology and science museum in San Jose, CA.
The Tech and Deloitte will team up to develop a new exhibit tentatively called "Choices," which will feature innovative renewable energy technologies that are alternatives to today's fossil-based fuels. The cross-functional Deloitte team will be comprised of consultants who specialize in clean tech, alternative energy and sustainability. Deloitte will assist the The Tech in the conceptualization of the exhibit, help recommend energy resources to be featured and connect The Tech with leading technology innovators to generate ongoing support of the exhibit.
The Tech engages people of all ages and backgrounds in exploring and experiencing the technologies affecting their lives, and aims to inspire the innovator in everyone. More than five million guests have visited the premier science and technology center since it opened its doors 10 years ago at the 201 South Market Street facility.
The exhibit will feature forefront clean technologies across a number of categories such as solar, wind, hydro, biofuels and geothermal. Each featured technology will give visitors insight into how the technology works, how they are being used today and an understanding of the choices and tradeoffs associated with each technology. Completion is expected in late 2009.
