Throughout the webinar, Popovic—a professor at San Diego State University (SDSU), speaker, author, and entrepreneur—and Vanshur—SDSU student and entrepreneur—will discuss this subject at length, using their own experiences, research, and discussions with other leaders in the space to draw conclusions and to make projections that could best ensure future success inside the higher-education classroom.
