From Lab to Impact: Broadening Participation Summit – Northeast

From Lab to Impact: Broadening Participation Summit – Northeast is a special short conference designed to help university researchers like you learn how to move your discoveries and inventions from the lab to the market, expand your research and career opportunities, and engage with the regional innovation ecosystem.

Through this summit, sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) I-Corps™ program, we aim to engage the nation’s diverse talent in strengthening and scaling the research that will drive tomorrow’s technologies and societal impact.
