In partnership with Gravity Ventures, the University of Arkansas Clinton School of Public Service will host a lecture on "Building World-class Ecosystems with Technology Startups" on Wednesday.
Gabriella Draney, whose vision of seeing Texas recognized as one of the top three innovation ecosystems in the world was realized, will present the many different players and catalysts necessary to make that dream a reality.
Building the world's leading B2B accelerator was the first step in the process. Tech Wildcatters began spinning out new programs in 2012, beginning with the international exchange globeStart, in partnership with American Airlines.
In 2013, Health Wildcatters became the first health care-focused accelerator in the Southwest and is currently running its second class. This fall marks the beginning of the latest spinout, the codex, which provides professional technology training.
Seats for the noon lecture in Sturgis Hall can be reserved by emailing [email protected] or calling (501) 683-5239.
