The Innovation District hosts a quarterly breakfast series called Morning Sparks: Innovation X-change. At each session we explore emerging technologies, invite District partners to share their current related efforts, and engage in thoughtful (and hopefully spirited) discussions that will spark future innovation.
Our Topic
This quarter the breakfast will focus on "GIS - Geographic Information System." You might have heard of this technology in the context of maps. But what else can it do? What are the emerging ideas that could impact our lives?
Why Are We Doing This?
Technology is rapidly evolving in ways we are all grappling to understand and embrace. These advances may change the way we operate our businesses, receive services, or think about our built environment. As a partner of the Innovation District, you play a unique role for our community - exploring and harnessing the potential of these advancements.
What Can You Expect?
We will begin the X-change with a brief presentation. In the style of our annual State of Science and our monthly Hub Tech X-changes, this presentation will be short and thought provoking. Then we will turn the discussion over to the audience. Together, we will explore how our District partners could embrace the technology, the implications for the future, and our next steps.
