Dear Professors,
Your research drives the intellectual capital of the Prairies. However, many powerful ideas developed across
our regional universities—from Manitoba to Saskatchewan—rarely transition from academic publication to practical application.
On
March 4, the Lab2Market (L2M) Prairies Hub invites you to a focused, 60-minute session designed to help you bridge that gap.
Growing Impact on the Prairies: Where Faculty Innovation Meets Opportunity
As part of a national network, we specialize in helping researchers navigate the "what’s next" for their

Note: Research Associates are also welcome to attend.
This session serves as a foundational gateway for faculty across the University of Manitoba, USask, URegina,
UWinnipeg, and Brandon University. We look forward to exploring how your ideas can achieve a broader future.
Best regards,
Loren Oschipok
Director, Lab2Market Prairies Hub
