UNH Showcase Days are an exclusive open house event designed for industry professionals. These smaller, frequent events replace our large-scope industry days to bring our external partners to campus for discovery and collaboration.
Explore our core facilities and engage in industry-focused presentations and discussions led by our campus partners. Network and connect with our partnership opportunities and other business leaders in the New Hampshire community and learn how collaboration with UNH can enhance your company's innovation and growth. This event is a perfect opportunity for business leaders looking to expand their network and explore potential collaborations and university resources.
