Zack Marcoux

Zack grew up in New England in a family of proud Boston and UConn sports fans. He attended the University of Connecticut where he studied Finance and French.

After graduating from UConn, Zack joined the finance rotational program at United Technologies (UTC) where he moved between Quebec, Florida, Massachusetts, and North Carolina working for Pratt and Whitney and Carrier divisions of UTC. Zack then spent the next 3 years in South Florida on the M&A team for Carrier HVAC where he worked on acquisitions and partnerships in commercial building technology such as innovative heat pump solutions. After working with startups in the clean tech space at Carrier, Zack wanted to focus more on the energy transition and went to get his MBA at UCLA Anderson. At Anderson, Zack interned with companies such as AlphaStruxure, Proterra, and the UCLA Institute for Carbon Management to gain a better perspective across energy, cleantech, and critical minerals. This led to Zack’s most recent role as the Manager of Business Development for Summit Nanotech, where he opened the US market for a Canadian Direct Lithium Extraction Company. In this role he managed RFPs to sell lithium extraction tech to major mining and oil and gas companies and worked with automotive and battery OEMs on Lithium offtake agreements.

Zack currently lives in Denver, Colorado where he enjoys playing pickleball, golf, and soccer in the city and skiing and biking in the mountains. Every year Zack travels back to the Florida Keys for a charity cycling event he started called ‘Bike the Keys’ which has its sixth annual ride coming up in May.
