Out to Innovate Summit is a biennial cross-generational multi-day event that provides an educational and supportive environment for career development and enrichment for LGBTQ+ students, academics, and career professionals in the Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. Established in 2010, this has become NOGLSTP’s signature event. Through the COVID pandemic, we have conducted small scale virtual events as we wait for a safer and more responsible time to meet in person.
