C2ER and the LMI Institute invite you to submit a poster for the 65th Annual Conference!
This year’s theme is Advancing Economic Prosperity Through Data Innovation. What are your data-driven approaches to overcoming economic and workforce challenges? We are eager to hear about fresh data methodologies you’ve deployed to identify emerging trends and inform strategic decision-making.
In celebration of the theme, this year’s meet and greet will be a poster session. As C2ER and the LMI Institute aim to promote conversation around current trends, we welcome posters with content within the past two years.
By sharing your experiences and insights, we can collectively advance economic prosperity through the power of data innovation.
The application deadline is Friday, March 7, 2025. Applicants can expect to hear a response regarding whether they have been selected by Friday, March 28, 2025. Space is limited to 20 accepted posters.
