TigerTalks

TigerTalks in the City brings the innovative research of Princeton faculty to New York City on a quarterly basis. The events feature a panel discussion on an interdisciplinary topic, followed by a networking reception for Princeton students, alumni, faculty and New Yorkers. The events started in 2016 in New York City and have been very popular among entrepreneurially-minded alumni. TigerTalks has now expanded to other cities, with the first TigerTalks on the Road in the spring of 2018 in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Archived video can be found (where available) for individual TigerTalks events under the Events Archive heading below.

UPDATE 3/10/20: Our TigerTalks events in New York City (March 25) and Washington DC (April 2) are postponed. Rescheduled dates will be announced.
