Speaker: John C. Warner
Our Program Excellence General Session speaker is John Warner, president and chief technology officer of the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry. John's presentation will address the theme of the ITEA conference, which is "Green Technology: STEM Solutions for 21st Century Citizens."
The Warner Babcock Institute is staffed with a diverse team of scientists and engineers focused on developing non toxic, environmentally benign and sustainable technological solutions for society.
