Join Purdue@WestGate at the WestGate Academy co-working space. Make an innovation day of it.
Come for any part of the day.
This is a chance for innovators from all reaches of the region to come together and enjoy great connectivity – interpersonal and internet.
We’ll be opening the co-work space for an entire day of free co-working AND including lunch courtesy of Smithville Fiber, our internet provider.
The Battery Innovation Center is a close neighbor to WestGate. They are the premier battery and energy storage research center in the United States. At 11:00 am (12:00 pm EST) they’ll be over to demonstrate some of the amazing energy storage technology emerging from their labs.
At day’s end we’ll gather to hear Chris Chance – CTO Aerotronic, discuss his company’s heavy-lift drone (Be sure and register at that event’s page — www.meetup.com/Evansville-Tech-on-Tap/events/248024397/ )
