New Opportunity for Students

IEDC offers a student rate for the entirety of the event, and those interested in attending the full forum can register here.  However, given that many students have classes, work, and obligations to fulfill outside of the classroom, we are also offering the opportunity to attend the forum for one day, Tuesday March 31, FREE of charge.
