We’ve reached the 100 episode mark; thank you for being a part of the TTIP journey so far!Over the past 99 episodes I have had the pleasure of interviewing people in 69 offices within, and 16 offices outside of, the United States, all of whom are doing incredible things in the technology transfer space! In today’s episode I share some memorable insights from these inspiring conversations. A particular passion of mine (as you will know if you are a regular listener) is enhancing diversity, equity, and inclusion, and I’m so proud of the work being done in our profession to create a world where these ideals are upheld. Listening in today, you will also hear about what motivated me to start this podcast, the plans that I have for its future, and of course, my three wishes!
