About this Event

The Innovate State Speaker Series brings emerging and accomplished Spartan entrepreneurs—innovators, builders, creators, and visionaries—to campus for a live, unscripted fireside chat. These 60-minute sessions offer the chance for guests to share their perspectives on a wide array of topics like innovation, startup life, investments, and career paths. These are stories of success, stories of failures, and stories of uncommon will—and you do not want to miss them.
