Company providing co-working spaces partners with Electric Works
DAVE GONG | The Journal Gazette
A national company specializing in co-working spaces has entered into a partnership with the developers of Fort Wayne s Electric Works project, a Monday news release said.
Washington, D.C.-based Carr Workplaces has entered into an agreement with RTM Ventures – the firm that owns the former General Electric campus and is developing the site – for about 32,000 square feet of space in Building 19 of the project s west campus. Carr Workplaces manages about 30 coworking spaces nationwide, the release said. At Carr Workplaces, we strive to create innovative, fresh and polished spaces for the productive professional, Ashley Buckner, the company s chief operating officer, said in a statement. Electric Works is a truly transformational project for the region and the state, and we are eager to help attract and connect a vibrant mix of companies, startups and entrepreneurs to drive i

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - How can you improve the cutting of gummy metals? Purdue University innovators have come up with an answer - and their findings may help in manufacturing products and reducing component failures.
The researchers previously showed that the application of a permanent marker or Sharpie, glue or adhesive film made it easier to cut metals such as aluminum, stainless steels, nickel, copper and tantalum for industrial applications. Marking the metal surface to be machined with ink or an adhesive dramatically reduced the force of cutting, leaving a clean cut in seconds. Now, they have discovered how these films produce the effect.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Technology similar to massive search engines used to scour the web may soon be used to provide new insights into consumer behavior and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on economies across the world. The technology also may be a useful tool for reducing misinformation in news media.
Purdue University innovators have created several patented technologies that they combined into a computer system to acquire and analyze real-time visual data from millions of globally distributed network cameras. The innovators define network cameras as those connected to the Internet and continuously capturing data.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - Amid rapidly rising cases of COVID-19 in Indiana, the Innovation Partners Institute (IPI) at Purdue University and MavenSphere today launched a personal engagement app designed to give organizations a simple tool to help people monitor their COVID symptoms, track test results, and connect to important support tools and resources. The fully-HIPAA compliant app, KeepOthersSafe, is currently being used by employees at the Purdue Research Foundation. We have learned through our experiences in protecting the Purdue campus this fall that it is critically important that all individuals monitor symptoms daily, engage with healthcare providers to get tested, and isolate or quarantine depending on test results or close contact with others who have tested positive, said David Broecker, Chief Innovation and Collaboration Officer for the Purdue Research Foundation and Executive Director of the Innovation Partners Institute. KeepOthersSafe helps facilitate th
