ABOUT THE 2017 INNOVATION EXPO
Mountain Studies Institute is proud to announce that the inaugural Silverton Innovation Expo, held August 14th and 15th, was a huge success!
The gathering was a meeting of the minds, bringing together industry representatives, government agencies, scientists, nonprofits and citizens to explore the need for innovation through expert presentations, networking opportunities, poster sessions and field tours of active reclamation sites.
In successive years, the Expo will evolve into a tradeshow format, providing a forum for discussion and exchange of ideas as well as a prime opportunity for exhibitors and speakers to showcase their innovative future technologies and build partnerships with other stakeholders.
The Expo is free and open to the public. We hope you will plan on joining us next year as we continue to re-envision and revitalize the future of reclamation!
