Innovation Takes Root: A Look Back
Innovation Takes Root 2018 was an amazing event. Thanks to all who attended, participated, and made ITR such an inspiring and collaborative event featuring how Ingeo is being used now and the potential for it in the future. Looking back, we welcomed over 300 attendees from around the world, featured over 60 speakers, hosted workshops, organized fireside chats, and offered an open exhibit hall. Of course, we also had the gracious support of 27 companies as event sponsors.
Be sure to check out the video and visit our ITR photo album to relive the collaborative fun of ITR2018. Keep an eye out for the upcoming full Innovation Takes Root Event Report, as well.
