Education: Steel to Scholars at Defrag Lorain

Tom Humphries and Reid Dulberger, Youngstown/Warren Regional Chamber, were our hosts yesterday in Youngstown.

The Regional Chamber has developed the successful "Steel to Scholars" educational program with the keen insight of strong private business leadership to aid and assist educators and students in reaching educational metrics.

Tom and Reid will teach us about this successful model and lend us their insights into private business leadership.

Steel to Scholars is a replicable model ready to be spun out across the state of Ohio.

What is the digital media opportunity here?

What can we learn from their pragmatic and practical points of view about building projects and new businesses?

How can Steel to Scholars metrics be applied to quality attainable metrics and deliverables in for game developers?

Better yet, What can we learn to strengthen private business leadership in Cleveland?
