October's luncheon will explore JMU X-labs and student innovations. Attendees will also get an informative session on the Commonwealth Research Commercialization Fund (CRCF).
Nick Swayne, founding director of the JMU X-Labs, will present on the evolution of the lab and how student innovations get launched.
Having recently won a Governor’s Award for Innovative Use of Technology in Education—and located at JMU’s Lakeview Hall—students, faculty and community members converge at JMU X-Labs to develop uncommon ideas through uncommon partnerships. Bringing unique ideas from disparate disciplines, they collaborate to solve real problems in innovative ways. More info at https://jmuxlabs.org.
