Building communities, founding a startup with people in mind

MIT Energy Initiative

Inspired by the MIT community and assisted by his collaborators, postdoc Francesco Benedetti launched a startup to provide innovative technology for energy-efficient, high-performance chemical separations — and won the MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition.
