About the Roundtable
The New England Energy Roundtable is a quarterly forum focused on energy policy across New England and the Northeast.
Our hybrid Roundtables average 500 participants, with half attending in person at Foley Hoag LLP in Boston’s Seaport District and the other half joining virtually via Zoom.
Attendees represent a broad cross-section of regional stakeholders, including policymakers, regulators, utilities, developers, clean energy companies, environmental organizations, technology innovators, and consumer advocates.
Leadership
As of January 1, 2026, the 30-year-old Roundtable entered a new chapter of leadership.
Raab Associates, in collaboration with the Roundtable Advisory Committee, selected Apex Analytics through a competitive RFP process to serve as moderator and convener.
The Roundtable is led by Matthew Nelson, with Apex Analytics Principals — Lauren Gage and Michael Goldman.
