Forums

The Innovation Transfer Network (ITN) offers a variety of opportunities for faculty, students, and business to interact, and the quarterly Forums are just one example.  These forums are an informal gathering of individuals representing academia and companies, those interested in discussing trends, new projects, company growth, economic development, and just plain cool stuff.

We've developed these forums based on the critical mass of interested parties who have come together and demonstrated a willingness to exchange ideas and collaborate.  Here is a brief overview of these forums:

Simulation and Serious Games XChange:

Faculty, students, and businesses interested in simulation and serious games are invited to join this quarterly confab.  The informal group meets to discuss gaming industry trends, to share interesting projects, identify potential resources, and engage in plans to raise the visibility of gaming talent in the region.  The meeting agenda includes brief presentations, upcoming gaming events, new ideas for future projects and grant options when applicable.  This group meets the second Wednesday of the designated month.  Here's a link to the December SSGX.  The 2012 dates will be posted shortly.  If you like to join our online gaming community on a separate Ning website, email us at itnwk@psu.edu and we'll send you an online invite.
