Center for Innovation and Growth

Join Us for CIG Innovation Salons and Summits!

INNOVATION SALONS are get-togethers for area entrepreneurs, B-W students and alumni interested in building social capital and connecting with innovative thought leaders. The Salons are held to promote engaging discussions around innovation opportunities and their role in Northeast Ohio's future. The free events usually take place on the second Tuesday of each month, except for months when we combine the Salon with CIG's spring and fall Innovation Summits. Satisfy your appetite with pizza and stimulating conversation on Tuesday afternoons!

INNOVATION SUMMITS are in-depth, semi-annual events where national and international innovation leaders take deep dives into challenges and solutions faced by organizations in our VUCA (volatile, unstable, complex, ambiguous) economy.  The format focuses on problem-solving and the challenges of innovation faced by companies in the region. Learn from the successes and trials of area leaders while building social capital! (Registration and $175 event fee required. B-W students free.)
