All Events

The Entrepreneurial Management Center and its on-campus partners host numerous events throughout the year that support its core mission of providing education, resources and research to the regional academic, alumni and business communities. These events are noted in RED.

The EMC Open Forum events are speaking events hosted by the Business Forum at the Entrepreneurial Management Center. These events are open to the public. The EMC Business Forum recruits high-quality speakers from their sponsorship pool and the business community to speak on a variety of topics that are relevant for the current business market. The goals of these speaking events are to promote outstanding educational value on wide spectrum of various learning topics and recognition of interconnectedness of business issues/decisions to relationship dynamics.

The EMC also promotes events hosted by our off-campus strategic partners and alumni-founded or sponsored organizations, which are noted in GOLD. We encourage you to take advantage of this valuable information presented on a range of business topics relevant to the entrepreneurial community.
