+Impact Studio

RSVP HERE

How are Ross faculty members advancing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals through business research? Each month, Business+Impact hosts an interactive design session themed around one of these goals. During the month of February, we will address Goal 13: Climate Action.  Several award-winning Ross faculty members (Ekaterina Astashkina, Andrew Hoffman, and Dana Muir) will share their research in an informal setting, and students will have the opportunity to brainstorm possible next steps for how the research can be applied to real-world applications that make a positive impact.

This limited-size two-hour workshop will feature:

  • Faculty presentations on key research insights
  • Discussion
  • Activity using design tools for opportunity identification

RSVP HERE

Due to high interest in these workshops, we must cap attendance at 25. We aim to keep the numbers of participants at a size that can accommodate the space capacity of the +Impact Studio and provide meaningful group discussion.
