A new blog from the Risk Innovation Nexus

A couple of years ago, we created the Risk Innovation Nexus (formerly the Risk Innovation Accelerator) at ASU — a unique initiative aimed at helping entrepreneurs, startups and others navigate an increasingly complex risk landscape between good ideas and social and economic success.

Having spent the past 18 months developing a growing set of resources and tools for entrepreneurial communities, we’re beginning to engage with a larger community of entrepreneurially-minded individuals and organizations, and with this, we have finally launched our long-anticipated blog: Rethinking Risk.

You can read my first post on risk in a time of coronavirus here — as well as signing up for regular updates from the Nexus.

How to make the world a better place … through risk?!

Back in January, I gave a talk at the KEEN National Conference on “New tools for creating value in an uncertain world.”

My talk is now up on the KEEN YouTube channel (see below), and is worth checking out if you are interested in the work we’re doing on creating value through innovative approaches to risk (especially for entrepreneurs and innovators) through the ASU Risk Innovation Nexus.

KEEN is a network of thousands of engineering faculty working to “unleash undergraduate engineers so that they can create personal, economic, and societal value through the entrepreneurial mindset.” It’s a really cool organization that is transforming how engineering is taught, and how faculty and educators mentor the next generation of forward-looking and socially responsible engineers.

If you’re interested, the slides from the talk are available here.
