TBED Community of Practice Subcommunity Meetings

SSTI is supporting subcommunities that focus on strategies within the field. Given the broad nature of the TBED field, we believe that fostering networks within more specific areas of practice will help achieve these goals. 

Subcommunities on Entrepreneurship Development; Research Parks; Risk Capital; and, Lab-to-Market are meeting regularly.
