More about Opportunity Workshops

Opportunity Workshops concentrate all attendees on a single focus concept while facilitating the learning, ideating, exploration, and planning around a spectrum of business opportunities. Opportunity Workshops bridge gaps between populations (example: students and off-campus community members), academic disciplines (example: arts and business), and theory and function (example: study and practice). Opportunity Workshops spark conversation, facilitate exploration, and lay the groundwork for further action. These condensed learning and networking opportunities will create common spaces for focused brainstorming and forge relationships. The series will catalyze business creation.
