IEEE-USA IWRC Conference

Monday, June 10

Innovation takes more than ideas — it takes partnerships. Small business owners, government officials, academic researchers, financers, and others need to work together for our local innovation ecosystem to thrive, but it is rare for those people to be all in one place — until now.

Innovation takes more than ideas — it takes partnerships. Small business owners, government officials, academic researchers, financers, and others need to work together for our local innovation ecosystem to thrive, but it is rare for those people to be all in one place — until now.

The 2024 IEEE-USA IWRC (Innovation, Workforce, and Research) Conference brings together industry leaders, academics, and government representatives to bridge the gap between cutting-edge research and practical, market-ready applications. During this one-day summit, experts from the Dakotas and across the country will delve into topics such as research grants, technology transfer programs, start-up funding, and intellectual property. The 11 June event aims to inspire and empower true innovation in the Dakotas and Midwest.
