Join Madison MAGNET for an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation (WARF), the organization that helps transform groundbreaking research at UW–Madison into real-world innovations.

Kevin Walters, Public Affairs Associate at WARF, will provide a high-level overview of the foundation’s mission, its longstanding partnership with UW–Madison, and how WARF supports the cycle of research, discovery, commercialization, and investment. We’ll also explore the organization’s rich history and the many initiatives that help drive innovation and economic growth throughout Wisconsin and beyond.

We strive to be an inclusive organization and encourage our members to engage with, learn from, and develop an understanding of others. We prioritize the safety of our community and expect behavior that exhibits respect for all people and supports these values at all Magnet gatherings.
