SUMMARY:Maseeh Exchange: Beyond the Hype: AI for Real
DESCRIPTION:Beyond the Hype: AI for Real\n\n\n\nJoin us for our free Spring Maseeh Exchange\, and see how advances in AI are being applied to real-world challenges at Maseeh College. As these technologies move from research into everyday use\, they are reshaping how engineers\, scientists\, and organizations approach design\, analysis\, and decision-making.  Across disciplines\, our researchers are translating complex information into practical decisions — improving systems\, informing design\, strengthening infrastructure\, and expanding what’s possible through thoughtful application of emerging technologies. Spring features the works of A Creative and Emerging Technology Institute (CETI). This event brings our community together to explore the role of creativity\, critical thinking\, and technical expertise in shaping solutions that matter. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:2026 Oregon Clean Grid Collaborative Summit
DESCRIPTION:2026 OCGC Summit\n\n\n\nThe Oregon Clean Grid Collaborative (OCGC) invites you to register early for the 2026 OCGC Summit\, taking place Monday May 18th\, from 9:00am to 1:30pm at the Willamette Heritage Center in Salem. \nOregon’s electrical grid is at a critical moment. Rapid load growth from electrification\, data centers\, and economic development is colliding with the state’s clean energy goals and an aging transmission system that is already at or nearing capacity. While Oregon has made progress towards meeting its clean energy targets and preparing for future energy demand\, much work remains. Decisions made over the next several years will shape whether the state can deliver reliable\, affordable\, clean energy to households and businesses—and capture the full economic and climate benefits of that transition. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Makers Hub: Alternative Ownership Models
DESCRIPTION:April Panel Discussion\n\n\n\nOur April Event will feature a panel discussion on Alternative Ownership Models. Join us to learn about pathways beyond traditional sales that preserve company culture\, protect your mission\, and ensure business continuity. \nFor many manufacturing business owners\, succession planning means choosing between selling to a competitor or private equity\, if no family member wants to take over. These conventional approaches often dismantle what made the business work in the first place and extract value rather than create it. \nPeter Koehler of Stronghold Ownership and Hannah Sandmeyer of Up & Over Advisors and Steward Market will shed light on ownership trusts\, ESOPS\, mission-driven M&A and everything in between. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Sustainable Building Monthly - February
DESCRIPTION:Sustainable Systems: Finding your Solution\n\n\n\nHigh-performance air systems demand modern design approaches with leading-edge products and technology in order to optimize comfort\, reduce energy consumption and ensure the long-term sustainability of a building. The presentation will discuss high performance solutions that can prioritize thermal comfort in nearly any application and provide the option for smaller/individual zones of temperature control. The energy efficient systems presented have been proven to provide up to 67% energy savings when compared to other more traditional HVAC systems. For long-term sustainability\, these solutions create future resilient spaces that ensure no comfort zones are split when office walls are put up or moved. The modular concept and flexibility provided by these systems guarantees that any changes in the floor plan will not trigger expensive and disruptive changes. \n\nRegister
