UPCOMING EVENTS

Team Spotlight, July 8
The July Team Spotlight will feature Nebraska Innovation Studio. The presentation will be from 10-11 a.m., and participants may attend either in-person at Nebraska Innovation Studio or via Zoom. In-person attendees will have the opportunity to tour the studio.

To attend via Zoom, you must register in Bridge to receive the meeting link and access the recorded session.

The ORED Team Spotlight is a response to the OPEN Forum where ORED team members explored big ideas. Staff determined that there is value in learning and understanding the work of each of the teams within the Office of Research and Economic Development. These meetings are scheduled for the second Friday of each month, beginning at 10 a.m. with remarks from Vice Chancellor Bob Wilhelm.

Contact Lisa Maupin, events and outreach manager, with questions.
