Innovation Engines in an Era of Constraint

How will you create high-wage jobs in your community?
In these challenging economic times, you need effective ways to stimulate your economy. Through technology-led economic development, communities around the world are creating jobs, attracting existing companies and supporting startups. Don't lose talent to nearby areas because your community doesn't have the jobs and opportunities to keep and attract them. 

In advance of the Euroscience Open Forum, government officials and research park and technology incubator executives will join the Association of University Research Parks (AURP) and the National Business Incubation Association (NBIA) for an executive forum on "Innovation Engines in an Era of Constraint."  Experts who plan, build and operate global university research parks and technology incubators will illustrate how they've created economic growth in their communities and how you can leverage
 your unique strengths to create your own Community of Innovation. 
Find strategies you can use to build successful public/private partnerships that create jobs and spur economic growth, even in challenging times. Make your plans today to attend AURP's "Innovation Engines in an Era of Constraint" and start creating new opportunities for your community.
