Tonight’s event is *SOLD OUT* – tickets will not be available at the door. Mark your calendars for our next event: Oregon Bio 2017 on 11.06.17 at OMSI.
Whether you are in high tech, advanced manufacturing, food and beverage, outdoor gear and apparel or bioscience, diversity and inclusion are essential to driving innovation. Join us on July 20 in Hillsboro as we highlight the impact of diversity in the workplace, starting with creating opportunities for all Oregonians. Where someone grows up determines more than just their schooling or their opportunities – it also affects their health and the health of their community. “The difference between a good zip code and a bad zip code is 25 years of life,” says Dr. David Bangsberg, the Dean for the joint OHSU-PSU School of Public Health and our keynote speaker for the event. After the keynote, join us for a panel discussion and breakout sessions, led by our panelists, highlighting the value of diversity in the workplace.
