Does diversity lead to greater innovation?
Building an Equitable Innovation Economy in Indianapolis
Victor Rubin, Vice President for Research at PolicyLink, will present on the changing and increasingly diverse demographics of Indianapolis and how to create and foster an equitable innovation economy in Indianapolis.
The Equitable Innovation Economy initiative seeks to address the growing income disparity and help cities capitalize on the growth in their innovation sectors to stimulate new product development and business formation, and capture the consequent job creation benefits in manufacturing.
The program includes a panel discussion featuring:
- Kathy Souchet Downey, Latino Outreach Coordinator for Congressman Andre Carson and board member of Latino Youth Collective
- Neelay Bhatt, Vice President of PROS Consulting and board member of Immigrant Welcome Center
- Tony Mason, President and CEO of Urban League
