[Bnc-faculty-all-list] FW: Discovery Park District Vision Presentation and Q&A Session

[Shakouri, Ali]

Dear Colleagues,

I encourage you to attend one of the Discovery Park District presentations next week (see below). Major development at the DP District provides a unique opportunity for Birck Center. This could range from housing startups by our faculty/students to partnerships with companies that will have presence in DPD. This could be an opportunity for us to bring outside users to our core facility as well as research collaborations.

PRF has plans to develop a learning living lab (smart city features, smart buildings/roads, 5G connectivity, etc.). There may be opportunities to use some of these in undergraduate and graduate classes (e.g. for virtual labs, demonstrations).

Please let me know if you have ideas or suggestions to maximize synergy between Birck Center with the DP District.

Thanks,
Ali

Subject: Discovery Park District Vision Presentation and Q&A Session

Dear Discovery Park faculty and staff,

Please join Brian Edelman, and the University's Foundation team building west of Discovery Park, for a presentation of the current plans and vision for the District followed by a Question and Answer session.

The intent for this time together is to communicate how the physical facilities of the District will seek to work with Purdue's researchers, interdisciplinary research centers and institutes of Discovery Park, and all affiliated research centers.  Completed, and done well, Purdue will have over 400 acres where researchers and talent converge with industry, investors, entrepreneurs, and government to build a better world.

Two separate sessions will be offered to accommodate everyone's schedules with each session covering the same information. These session are planned for:


  *   Tuesday, October 8th, from 3-4pm in MRGN 121
  *   Wednesday, October 9th, from 3-4pm in MRGN 121

Thank you,

Cliff Wojtalewicz
