The Austin Peay State University Annual Business and Industry Summit
This year's summit, “Leading in a Disruptive Environment,” was held Feb. 11, 2021.
We were joined by key influencers in the region in discussions aimed at supporting the Clarksville-Montgomery County area's ability to lead and change in disruptive environments. Because of the pandemic, this year’s summit – which each year strives to connect education, government and industry partners – took place as an online seminar comprising several speakers and panel discussions.
