Innovation Day, DePaul's annual celebration of the creative spirit in research, focuses on cultivating unexpected partnerships and approaches to solve problems. DePaul community members come together to present their findings, discuss their perspectives on innovation and make connections across disciplines.
This year, the Jan. 27 event will feature an Innovation Showcase, highlighting projects that show how creativity in research is meeting industry and societal needs.
The selected 27 projects will be demonstrated in an open forum. Innovation Day attendees can visit their "booths" during two dedicated Innovation Showcase sessions (11:05-11:45 a.m. and 2-2:45 p.m.) and decide which one will receive DePaul’s Innovation Award. The winner will be featured on the
University Research, Creative Activities, and Innovation website. More information on the showcase projects
is online.
