Slice of MIT: Driving Innovation and a STEAM Roller in Arkansas
“When Chris Jones SM ’03, PhD ’16 walks down the halls of Winrock International’s Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub, he sees MIT. “It’s like a fab lab, an artist’s space, and Sloan all built into one—it reminds me of the varied and spontaneous interactions that occur in the Infinite Corridor,” he says. For the executive director of the nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring new generations of makers, it feels like he’s been able to bring a little MIT magic back to his home state.”
