RISE Summit

Looking back at the inaugural Wisconsin RISE Initiative Summit

Members of the campus community gathered on September 20, 2024, to learn more about the vision of RISE, its implementation, and what’s yet to come.

The event included a plenary session featuring remarks by Chancellor Jennifer Mnookin and Provost Charles Isbell, and a Q&A session with the audience.

Smaller, unrecorded breakout sessions on the three announced RISE focus areas — AI, EARTH, and THRIVE — followed the plenary.
