University Research & Technology Roundtable – Water/Wastewater

All dates for this event occur in the past.

Spotlighting Breakthrough Innovations Around the Great Lakes Region 

Join Mazarine for their annual roundtable, conducted in 2 sessions, focused on research and technology development being undertaken at Universities around the Great Lakes region.

While we all have heard the statistic that the Great Lakes contain over 20% of the world’s freshwater resources, what is less known is the region’s impactful contribution to addressing the world’s climate and environmental challenges. Universities in the region are conducting a wide variety of research and technology development projects that tackle water/ wastewater challenges in agriculture, conservation, buildings, industry, and utilities.

Each day’s 90-minute program will offer invited universities 15-minutes each to introduce their water/wastewater-related research and technology development activities. The remaining time each day will be reserved for discussion and audience questions around where and how university innovation can more expeditiously move from university lab to market trials. 

Highlighted research and technology development will span biomimicry, chemistry, computer engineering, data science, materials science, microbiology, and advances in process engineering. This program’s attendees will include a mix of academia, corporates, investors, government, non-profit, engineering firms, and industry consultants.

 

Featured Great Lakes Region Universities

Day 1 (6/14): University of Toronto, University of Michigan, University of Minnesota, Clarkson University, and University of Illinois.

Day 2 (6/15): Ryerson University, University of Wisconsin, Northwestern University, and Ohio State University. 

 

Hosted by Mazarine Labs, seeking out and working with research institutions to accelerate the commercialization of university research exploring new ways of addressing water/wastewater challenges.
