State of Science Wowed Us Again!

At the 5th annual State of Science and Innovation, five innovators from St. Pete were give only six minutes to share the work they are doing.   Kudos to all of them - they did an amazing job!  They dove deep into interesting applications of technology in life science, education, and marine science.‍  The speakers were:

  • Mary Losacco, Bayfront Health
  • Dr. David Rosengrant, University of South Florida (USF) College of Education
  • Natalie Sawaya, USF College of Marine Science
  • Ben Minichino, Pole Star Global
  • Richard Goosen, Saildrone

Thank you to the hundreds of attendees - in person and online.  The buzz of energy and interesting conversations that happened during the reception was phenomenal.
