The Next Frontier Initiative
This national initiative empowers students, young adults, companies, academic institutions, and nonprofits with the resources, connections, and access to information they need to enter and/or accelerate their business and/or academic success in what we have identified as the Next Frontier Industry opportunities of the 21st Century including:
- Data Analytics
- Cyber Security
- FinTech
- Aerospace
- Life Sciences
- AR/VR
- Advanced Manufacturing
- Autonomous Systems
How we do it:
We build and manage Next Frontier facilities, programs, events, and partnerships that are all designed to provide students, young adults, academic institutions, corporations, and non-profits with the resources, connections, and access to the vital information they need to achieve maximum success between now and 2030.
We strongly believe that the next decade will prove to be one of the most transformational in history. The global COVID-19 pandemic has changed the game in so many ways. The individuals, companies, and organizations who do what it takes to pivot and properly position themselves for growth post-pandemic will be poised to achieve exponential results.
