Economists around the world are predicting that transformational entrepreneurship and technology will be required to truly lift the global economy from its dangerous slump. A thousand of the globe’s most promising innovators will come together September 10-12 in Dalian, China, to present their ideas for a new wave of economic growth as part of the World Economic Forum “Summer Davos” in Asia meeting.

Five Rensselaer educators and researchers will have the honor of representing Rensselaer as one of only a handful of universities invited to the international discussion. They will present their ideas on how the innovative engineering that is such a strong part of research and education at Rensselaer can lead the world into a new era of health, prosperity, connectivity, and high technology.
