BUILD Boston, a four-year program designed to turn disengaged kids at risk of dropping out into full-fledged entrepreneurs, just launched a Holiday Giving initiative that?s running through Dec. 31.
We see value and opportunity in disengaged youth. At BUILD in Boston, we know it’s no secret that kids who are bored in high school have brilliant ideas.

Join us in investing in their futures and inspire the next generation of entrepreneurs this holiday season!
No museum experience is one size fits all. Or at least it shouldn’t be, if you ask Boston entrepreneur Brendan Ciecko.

First Solar recently finished building Topaz, a 550-megawatt plant that represents the largest active solar farm on the planet.

First Solar’s Desert Sunlight farm will match that capacity once its last solar cells go online, and SunPower’s 579MW Solar Star is due to go live in 2015.
