Clemson Convergence: Entrepreneurship, Innovation, Science, and Technology March 8 from 10am to 12:30pm in the Watt Center Auditorium and Atrium.
The event will kick off with an interactive panel discussion including panelists from across campus (4 colleges represented!) discussing their personal journeys in entrepreneurship and innovation. The audience will be given the opportunity to ask questions and join the conversation! Following the panel discussion there will be a networking reception that includes representatives from CURF, Creative Inquiry, Corporate Learning, and others. Light refreshments will be served during this opportunity for everyone to meet each other and forge friendships and collaborations. The event was developed by doctoral student and graduate assistant Grant Allard. Grant is in the Policy Studies Program and came up with the idea for this event because he was interested in meeting researchers who are looking at these topics from different angles. As he met new and different people, he kept hearing a similar story that there are a lot of people teaching, researching, and practicing entrepreneurship and innovation at Clemson but they rarely gather as a community. With the help of Greg Pickett and Chad Navis and the support of his supervising professor, Bruce Ransom, he set about changing this through Clemson Convergence.
