Members of the Case Western Reserve University community are invited to attend an Innovation Week session to hear from faculty, staff and students who are using Sears think[box] to make ideas become a reality. The free, public event will take place from 2 to 3:50 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 27, on the first floor of Sears think[box].

This session, moderated by Tiffany McNamara, senior director of strategic partnerships and business development for Sears think[box], will include representatives on topics such as:
