Innovation Hub to Host ASBTDC Workshops

February 26, 2015

The Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub will host a couple of upcoming workshops from the Arkansas Small Business & Technology Development Center.

Registration info below.

ASBTDC is based at UALR but has offices at universities across the state. It provides assistance and resources to small business owners and aspiring entrepreneurs. 

The Hub, of course, is the nonprofit organization behind the Argenta Innovation Center in downtown NLR. It includes the Launch Pad maker space; the Silver Mine coworking space; the STEAM Lab in partnership with EAST Initiative, where EAST students can tinker and experiment; and the Art Connection, where local students meet entrepreneurship through the arts.

The first ASBTDC workshop at the Hub will be "Commercializing Your Technology: Moving from Idea to Market." It goes down Thursday, March 19, from 7:30 a.m. to noon, and cost is $50. Brian Rogers of the ASU Catalyst Innovation Center will lead. 

The second workshop, "Will Your Big Idea Succeed? Tools for Tipping the Odds in Your Favor," will run Tuesday, April 14, from 8 a.m. to noon, and cost is $50. John Riggins of the Riggins Group and ATU will lead.
