Thank you for your support and patience as we work on understanding how to proceed with the issue.

In response to concerns over the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), we wanted to communicate to you in advance of InnovateIT 2020, scheduled to be held at iCREATE on March 27th and 28th.  Stony Brook University continues to closely monitor the guidance provided by CDC and New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) and has determined that out of an abundance of caution, at this time InnovateIT 2020 will not take place as planned. We are hoping to reschedule this in the near future. 

Thank you for supporting iCREATE and InnovateIT 2020. The University is committed to protecting the health of our community and we thank you for all your help in our efforts. Please reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We will keep you apprised of additional updates.

Best Regards,

The InnovateIT Team
