Worth It: Seizing the North American Advantage
Hosted by the North Capital Forum
North America's competitive edge in research, talent, and production depends on strong connective tissue between universities, industry, and capital. This conversation brings together leaders from research, manufacturing, and industry to explore how cross-border collaboration — from R&D partnerships to workforce pipelines to supply chain innovation — is shaping what gets built, researched, and commercialized across the region. Panelists will share how their institutions are building the partnerships and talent systems that are already powering North America's next wave of investment and innovation
