What’s the Big Deal?

The Pittsburgh Entrepreneur’s Forum (for which Leech Tishman serves as an Annual Sponsor) will be hosting a program entitled, “What’s The Big Deal?.” During this program, PEF will showcase recent ‘Big Deals’ in the region—significant financing events, acquisitions, and strategic partnerships. The panel will discuss the behind-the-scenes efforts that built up to the Big Deal, the changes that have happened since the Big Deal, and lessons learned.

Pittsburgh has identified a need to build and support innovation clusters in advanced manufacturing, life sciences, and autonomous systems while creating talent alliances within our local innovative districts. One important aspect is recognizing the success and stories of perseverance.
