We invite our NACRO members and network to join Tony Peebles (Director, Diversity Advancement & Corporate Relations at Case Western Reserve University) and Katheryne Rehberg (Director, Business Development, Office of Corporate Relations at the University of Illinois) in an honest dialogue around diversity and the critical role universities play in solving the challenges industry face in fostering a diverse workforce. This is our pilot launch and we plan to bring you relevant content each month and feature guests that are diversity leaders in industry and academia. To learn more check out these links:

The long term goal of NACRO and its membership is to engage industry in a setting that allows for open discussion while sharing best practices with peers. As corporate philanthropy and R&D evolves towards increasingly collaborative activities, NACRO will aid in defining these roles. As corporations expand globally but work locally, they seek the “front door” to an academic institution that a university corporate relations office can provide.
