Vince spent last week in the Midwest, traveling both to Michigan and northwest Indiana for several important engagements.

  • Lansing, MI: Vince met with the Michigan Executive Leadership Team to discuss the state’s PLTW growth strategy, and then delivered the keynote at the Michigan PLTW State Conference, speaking to over 300 attendees about the importance of PLTW’s work in preparing America’s students for the global economy.
  • Indianapolis: Vince sat down with Inside Indiana Business host, Gerry Dick, on Thursday for a one-on-one interview that focused on Project Lead The Way’s mission, its national growth, and the critical need for STEM education in the U.S. Vince also promoted the Indiana State PLTW Conference as well as an exclusive panel discussion the evening before the conference.
