Radio Shop Chats

SpectrumX’s signature outreach program is called Radio Shop Chats. These are one-hour virtual seminars on a variety of spectrum-related topics given by experts who are not Center members. Significant care is taken to ensure that these talks explore topics and perspectives outside of typical Center programming to more fully engage our internal and external audiences. These sessions are open to our Center members as well as a broader audience of individuals in our network, including attendees of previous SpectrumX meetings, interest form submitters, and frequent collaborators.
 
All of our recorded Radio Shop Chats can be viewed below.
