Building an Interconnected STEM Community

ICAN Women’s Leadership Conference

Thank you ICAN for inviting us to this conference!

A special thank you to everyone who watched the presentation and visited our booth in person and virtually. We appreciate your support!

For those who were not able to make it to the ICAN Women’s Leadership Conference, OSE Director Julie Sigmon and AIM Institute President and CEO Kandace Miller presented “Rising Stronger Within Omaha’s Digital Landscape”. They discussed the STEM Community Platform, which is a website that we are collaborating on to bring awareness to the varying careers in STEM.

Aldrin Family Foundation Event

In May, the OSE hosted the Aldrin Family Foundation Event. We are grateful to have helped with this event to create the next generation of space leaders, entrepreneurs, and explorers. Special thank you to the Aldrin Family Foundation and Andy Aldrin for inviting the OSE to be a part of this event. To learn more about the Aldrin Family Foundation click this link.

Stay tuned for updates coming to the STEM Community Platform this Summer. Keep a lookout for changes coming to the SCP as we update our information about career academies and add more careers to our career exploration.

Join our efforts to ensure five more years of STEM excellence and innovation. Your time, talent and treasure will help move our work forward as we transform Omaha into a robust STEM community where our talent pipeline can grow.

From all of us at the Omaha STEM Ecosystem, thank you for your continued support in making STEM Learning and STEM careers a priority in the Omaha area!
