    Posted 06-22-2016 18:59
    Colleagues

    I encourage you to join a virtual conversation with directors of research centres to discuss funding challenges. We all face these challenges and the Network for Business Sustainability has lined up 4 people, who have intimate knowledge of securing centre funding. After their short presentations, we will engage in a conversation among all webinar participants. Details below. 
     
    When: Friday, July 8, 2016, 11 am - 12 pm Eastern time (ET)
    Cost: Free
    Registration: Email Maya Fischhoff at mfischhoff@nbs.net to receive a calendar invitation
    More information: http://nbs.net/webinar-finding-centres-funding/  
     
    The panelists have broad experience in attracting centre funds. They are:
     
    •             Joe Arvai, Faculty Director, Erb Institute, Ross Business School and School of Natural Resources and Environment, University of Michigan
    •             Michael Hensen, Director, Social Innovation Centre, and Director, External Research Funding, INSEAD
    •             Katie Kross, Managing Director, Center for Energy, Development, and the Global Environment (EDGE), Fuqua School of Business, Duke University
    •             Tim Smith, Director, NorthStar Initiative for Sustainable Enterprise, Institute on the Environment, University of Minnesota
     
     
    If you are not already a member of the SCC, please join. I do hope you join this group. We can do so much more by learning from each other and building community, than we can if we work independently. 
     
    Sincerely,
