ABOUT THE EMERGING
GROWTH
AND INNOVATION SERIES
Because of the growing
momentum and business development opportunities that the
Connect Northwest forums have created, we will continue
to host these informative and timely events. The
Emerging Growth and Innovation Series will be held four
times per year. Each series features presentations from
various disciplines within an industry including the
private sector, research and educational institutions,
venture capital, and emerging companies.
The presentation portion
of the forum will be held at 3:30 pm and will
include a keynote speaker and others followed by a panel
discussion which may include a researcher, a
technologist, an industry expert, a business leader and
an investor. The purpose of the panel is to provide
working knowledge and current updates of a specific
segment within an industry. The benefit for attendees
is an opportunity to hear a cross-section of
perspectives within a specific industry. In addition,
this event will facilitate, promote and foster
relationships among entrepreneurs, business leaders,
investors and researchers.
