RISE 2017: Join in With the Northeast's Prestige Technology Event

Edgy Labs begins its coverage of the 2017 Research, Innovation, and Scholarship Expo (RISE) taking place at Boston’s Northeastern University.

RISE is a lot like a grownup version of a science fair.

Every year, well over 2,000 people attend Northeastern University’s prestige event dedicated to breakthrough research in clean energy, computer science, social engineering, and FinTech.

These are technologies that will govern our world and our lives as we transition into Industry 4.0. Furthermore, as the Internet of Things begins to manage our digital and physical infrastructures, pools of thought like the RISE conference will have to be gathered in order to stay ahead of this evolution.
