G2U Network Conversation: Kansas City’s Approach to Broadening Network Engagement
Friday, December 4, 2020 at 12:00 p.m. EST
A year and a half ago, the Volcker Alliance launched the first pilot G2U Network in Kansas City. As G2U’s trailblazer, Kansas City has activated a broad, engaged network of close to 300 partners. In a very short time, the network has advanced impactful projects—from a growing training academy for government practitioners to public sector recruitment tools such as videos highlighting public sector careers. The network is poised to launch even more G-U collaborations in 2021.
Join a conversation with leaders of Kansas City’s G2U Regional Coalition to hear how they are forging new relationships between governments and universities and launching collaborative efforts that are making a difference. You will also have the opportunity to engage with peers to explore tangible ways to increase G-U partnerships in a virtual environment.
Featured Speakers:
- Larry Hisle, Director, Greater Kansas City Federal Executive Board
- Carolyn McKnight, Director of Community Engagement and Business Development, Kansas University
- Lauren Palmer, Director of Local Government Services, Mid-America Regional Council
The conversation is FREE for all who wish to attend!
