*VIRTUAL* RTP180: Agricultural Innovation
About this Event
MAY’S RTP180 TOPIC | AGRICULTURAL INNOVATION
PRESENTED BY RTI INTERNATIONAL
The roots of agriculture run deep in North Carolina. As our environment and economy evolve, agricultural innovation is more important than ever. Join us on May 21 to hear how the Triangle’s innovation district is disrupting the ag industry with new measures and solutions.
RTP180 has taken a hiatus since February due to icy conditions and most recently, Covid-19. Our team has been working behind the scenes on solutions for moving forward. This mission of this event, telling the stories of innovations and talent in this region, remains as important as ever and the show must go on. This month you can join us via Zoom’s Webinar feature. The first 100 folks to RSVP will receive a followup email with the Zoom link and password. The event will be live-streamed here on our Facebook page beginning at 6:00 p.m. Thursday, May 21.

About RTP180
Innovation. Education. Industry. These are powerful angles—and what Research Triangle Park is known for. At RTP180, speakers from our three founding universities, Park companies, and the community at-large are called upon to take the stage to speak passionately about what matters to them. The twist? They must do it in 5 minutes or less!
Virtual doors open at 5:30 p.m. for the preshow slides. Show kicks off at 6:00pm, sharp.
