We're glad that you are interested in attending SSTI's 2016 Annual Conference in Columbus, Ohio on November 1-3, 2016. This year, SSTI is partnering with the National Science Foundation's Science of Science and Innovation Policy (SciSIP) program to host a series of panels that connect academic researchers with practitioners in the technology-based economic development community, as well as a Colloquium on Science and Innovation Policy Research and Practice. 

Held in concert with SSTI’s 2016 Annual Conference, the Colloquium will provide a unique opportunity to cross fertilize the interests and needs of TBED practitioners and SciSIP researchers with each other’s perspectives, learnings, limitations, and observations in a manner to spawn new directions and datasets for future SciSIP research and better TBED practice.
