Upcoming CRA-Industry Roundtable Events


CRA-Industry was created recently with the goal of reaching out to industry partners involved in computing research and giving them new opportunities to convene and connect on topics of mutual interest with academic and government partners.  The CRA-Industry committee recognizes the diversity of companies that participate in the computing research ecosystem and seeks to enable all those companies, big and small, tech and non-tech, to get the greatest benefit from partnerships with academia and government agencies. Recently, the CRA-Industry Committee kicked off a series of bimonthly 75-minute virtual Roundtable meetings, with the first one on Corporate Responsibility and Computing Research held in July 2021.  These Roundtable meetings are planned to be held on a bimonthly cadence, and the next two are planned for September and November.
