April 2021 Innovation Challenge Update

Ice Cream Making At the Lambaye Learning Center

The Innovation Challenge now moves into its final phase: design and implementation. Our workshop series is wrapping up this week and over the last few weeks we have had amazing presentations from Scot Mackie on entrepreneurship and Dan Pfeffer and his team at Thermal Energy Partners presented on renewable energy and innovation.

Additionally, Amary Seck, our President, along with two other board members, our Treasurer Simon Levinson, and Innovation Challenge Director Lauren Levinson, visited the learning center in April in order to implement the final phase of the Innovation Challenge. They created interactive workshops in chemistry, such as ice cream making with endothermic reactions and making silly putty with glue, cornstarch, and water, to teach scientific methodological thinking. See some great photos from their time there below!
