NEXTOVATION

Industry 4.0 gives the Alle-Kiski Valley region a tremendous opportunity to develop advantages for students, companies and communities. Penn State New Kensington has teamed up with local industry, government, K-12 education and innovation leaders to give the region an advantage in preparing for and succeeding in an Industry 4.0 world. This collaborative effort is referred to as the "nextovation" of a Rust Belt area. Blending "next" and "innovation," Nextovation™️ refers to the multi-sector partnerships convening to prepare for a knowledge-based economy by developing communities, industries, workforce and education.
