TechTalk: Preparing the Future Workforce through Innovative Education-Business Partnerships

Join us on Tuesday October 27th for a different kind of TechBrew. We're shifting to a virtual TechTalk format this month and inviting you to join an exciting expert panel discussion on a topic that's both timely and important!

North Iowans know the importance of STEM education and careers - and we're ready for the next steps. Educators and businesses are working together in innovative partnerships to cultivate a skilled STEM workforce. How can this benefit North Iowa? How can your organization get involved? We'll be talking about real-world solutions and actions - we hope to see you there!
