BE COUNTED!
Help us better understand Dayton Ohio’s STEM (science, technology, engineering, & math) ecosystem by being counted as a STEM Asset!
What is a STEM Asset?
STEM Assets are people, organizations, and companies that work in the STEM space whether it's as an educational entity, extra curricular entity, a STEM employee, or STEM employer (no matter your size).
Through better understanding of who/what people and organizations make up our unique STEM ecosystem, we can better advocate and collaborate.
What is the DO STEM Ecosystem? The DO STEM Ecosystem is a regional initiative modeled after internationally acclaimed TIES ecosystem model.
We are focused on bringing together collaborative, regional partners who are committed to leveraging resources and opportunities to better engage our community in STEM opportunities throughout the Dayton region.
There is NO COST associated with being counted as an asset. Please join us in counting you and your contributions to the Dayton, Ohio STEM ecosystem by completing this short form
The DO STEM Engagement Portal utilizes the Kumu platform's visual mapping capabilities to create interactive network visualizations. These visualizations represent the connections and relationships between individuals, organizations, projects, and resources within the STEM community. This visual representation helps users navigate the platform, discover relevant content, and identify potential collaborators or resources.
