“The beauty of economic development and education working together is that we can foster imaginative and innovative economies,” University of Nevada, Reno President Milt Glick said. “When higher education and economic development partner together, everyone benefits.
“The work of the university becomes more economically relevant to the city, the region and the state creating a more diverse, revitalized economy. Our community enjoys and benefits from the science and technology, arts and culture, finance, health care and education … all of the key elements that are so central to a flourishing community.”
