What is NETT Day?

Established in 2010, Northeastern Empowerment Through Technology (NETT) Day at Northeastern Illinois University is an event that celebrates technology, the way in which we interact with it, and how we use it to improve society.

The theme for NETT Day 17, "Digital Transformation: Shaping the Future of Business," explores how emerging technologies are changing the way organizations operate, make decisions, connect with customers, and prepare for the future. From artificial intelligence and data analytics to the implementation of new technologies, NETT Day 17 will highlight the opportunities, challenges, and skills associated with navigating in increasingly digital business environment.

Throughout the day, our engaging sessions will provide insights into real-world applications of technology, professional experiences, and the evolving relationship between business and technology.
