PME Industry Seminar Series - Dr. Robert A. Lowe, Chief Executive Officer of Wellspring

Title: The Innovation Renaissance: Implications for University-Industry Collaborations<br /><br />

We are entering a new age of innovation. An innovation renaissance is on the horizon, fueled by the perfect storm of rapid changes in select scientific fields, new government spending programs, and macroeconomic shifts converge to significantly alter how innovation occurs. The annual Wellspring Survey of R&D and Innovation Leaders highlights how these changes are already playing out. In this seminar, we will discuss the most recent Wellspring surveys as well as the implications for how collaborations between universities and companies are evolving, including<br />
• How COVID improved collaboration<br />
• Why supply chain and inflation are not major concerns<br />
• The dramatic shift in innovation priorities and staffing entering 2023<br />
