The successful turnout is a representation of the drive that exists at UNT toward innovation and collaboration. We hope that you all found the workshops informative and were able to network with others across campus. Events like these provide such a unique opportunity to brainstorm and partner with individuals who may come from other offices or departments. We have received remarkable feedback about the conference and intend to compile all comments and focus on how we can make the next conference even better. We aim to continue to provide opportunities such as these to further build upon our culture of invention and advancement. I thank you once again for attending this wonderful conference and sharing in the collaboration. I greatly anticipate planning the next conference and look forward to seeing what culminates from our joint efforts. Appreciatively, Allen Clark
