Are you interested in entrepreneurship and innovation policy? The Connecticut Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation is co-organizing the new Entrepreneurship & Innovation Virtual Research Seminar Series! Join the mailing list for seminar announcements HERE.
Governments around the world enact policies that affect technology, innovation, and entrepreneurship. An increasing number of scholars are investigating these topics, which has implications on policy design and program implementation. Yet, scholars lack a forum for presenting their work. This virtual seminar series will fill this gap—bringing together the insights from academia and policy application—thereby increasing our understanding of policy issues and build a forum for expressing these ideas and a supportive community to nourish them.
The first event is scheduled for March 1: 11:15 am – 12:30 pm ET, including a panel of top scholars presenting their research (see below), and a discussion on research opportunities with Andrew Toole (Chief Economist, USPTO) and Andrea Belz (SBIR Division Director, NSF). Please register HERE for this March 1 event.
