    As Entrepreneur in Residence at NWRC one of my key roles is to identify and support innovative ideas and entrepreneurial thinking throughout the college network. The IDEATOR Awards serves as a stepping stone for both students and recent NWRC student alumni to develop innovative business ideas further.
