11th Annual Industry-Academia Days: TBD 2021
Due to the on-going COVID 19 (Conoravirus) situation and in accordance with Rensselaer’s guidelines regarding social distancing and in-person events, we are planning to host a virtual IADays during the spring of 2021.
LESA Center and Rensselaer operational activities are continuing as normal during this time. Please contact Leah Scott (scottl2@rpi.edu or 518-276-4010) with any additional questions or to be added to our mailing list. We want to thank you for your continued interest and support of the LESA Center, and we hope you will all join us this spring.
Industry-Academia Days is traditionally a two-day event that brings together our Center members, industry experts, and Rensselaer faculty experts to take part in an on-going dialogue on the challenges and opportunities in the connected environment. Each year, we offer a robust program building on the success of previous IADays to ensure participants find real value.

“It was a very well organized meeting and I really enjoyed the technical content. The breadth of research presented in one day was amazing and there was a serious drive toward real-world applications. I enjoyed interacting with the students and learning about their work in vertical agriculture and sensor development. It was definitely a great opportunity to meet very interesting people and learn about new research fields.” – Levente Klein, T. J. Watson Research Center
