Building Human and Social Capital

Knowledge Economy Conference

The knowledge Economy

Register today for the Knowledge Economy

Conference. This conference takes a detailed

look at the non-traditional possibilities available

in Ohio’s communities to build economic

sustainability by creating innovation that meets

changing needs.

 

OSU President Karen Holbrook will join us at the beginning of the conference to share her thoughts on Ohio State’s role in the knowledge economy. Later in the day, there will be roundtable discussion on the issues facing us in building Ohio’s knowledge economy, and next steps for us to take will be decided on. (See Agenda)

to share on the knowledge economy, submit an

abstract. We hope to see you on May 2nd!
