Cross-Promotional Event Details
Make It. MSP. Survey
Make It. MSP. is an initiative to make this an even better place for people to come, stay, and thrive. Their ambition is to make the Minneapolis-Saint Paul region a top performer attracting and retaining talented people like you. To welcome WE18, Make It. MSP. has a small working committee with volunteers from area companies, including Medtronic, Smiths Medical, Target and Ecolab to ensure we have a collaborative approach when welcoming women engineers to our region in October.
Make It. MSP.'s campaign will be centered on how the North is the Problem-Solving Capital of the New Economy, which will complement WE18's conference theme of Let's Break Boundaries. We are working with this committee to thoughtfully spotlight women who are working to solve a universal problem and how MSP is the best place to do it. As a fellow leader and problem-solver, we need your help!
We kindly ask you to complete this short questionnaire detailing the following:
Make It. MSP. will also be activating on-site at WE18 in the Social Media Lounge. More details to come!
