  • The Innovation Center in the Anderson College of Business and Computing hosts the 8th Annual Regis Innovation Challenge Finals on Thursday, April 17th from 5:30-8 p.m. The annual business competition will feature pitches by 5 teams including Regis and Arrupe Jesuit HS students, Nursing alumna Mina Tran, and two community businesses working with current students. This year's finalists include a tech solution to help with gestational diabetes, a culturally minded assisted living home, an all-natural food bar (who was named #1 by Consumer Reports!), a tech platform to help reduce crop losses in Africa, and a yet-to-be-identified finalist from Arrupe Jesuit HS. The event truly is a celebration! As the audience, you help determine which businesses to invest in (we will be investing over $20,000 in cash and prizes), vie for the special annual T-shirts, and more! Refreshments provided. RSVP here.
