Cross Campus Innovation Challenge

We live in a world today with huge opportunities and challenges in every sector. There is an important leadership "call to action" to understand society’s greatest problems, identify solutions, resource organizations appropriately, and ultimately lead in a way that creates value for all stakeholders – shareholders, customers, employees and society.

The Innovation Challenge is a great example of the spirit of collective effort which is essential to success, exemplifying an invaluable partnership between the Anderson school and the greater UCLA campus, our many students, faculty and alumni who are committed to innovation and advancements in healthcare and sustainability. This initiative brings together UCLA students from all disciplines and backgrounds to create new ventures that can drive a positive change in society.

Join Harlan Levine, Matt Kozlov, and Gayle Northrop in a moderated conversation on these topics. And hear about the formal launch of the Easton Center Innovation Challenge - the innovation prompts, deadlines, prize monies and the content/programming designed to support participating students on their journeys.
