  • Know an Undergrad with an Idea to Share?

    Do you know an undergrad with an idea to share with the UConn Alumni Community?

    The UConn Foundation and The Werth Institute are collaborating for the inaugural Innovation Conversations this Fall!   We are anticipating an in-person speaking event held at Burns & Levinson in the Boston Financial District on October 21, 2021. The theme for this year is "Ideas Untapped". 

    We are looking for undergraduate students passionate about a topic and would like to share it with the UConn Alumni community. If you know someone that may have a new idea, unique story, lesson learned through experience, or other kind of fresh perspective on advancements we should explore together, both as a university community and as global citizens, please pass this information on to them!  There are no requirements for major, plan of study, or college of enrollment. 

    Click here to access an application form that will collect information about both the individual and idea.  Submission of a 2-3 minute video of the student explaining the proposed talk is required for completion of the form- please have this prepared before beginning.  This form should take under 10 minutes. Following completion of this form, we will be in touch to schedule a brief virtual meeting to discuss the submission.
