In an effort to create a consistent institutional presence on the site, please follow these directions. To get started, you first need to create your own member profile. You will put Purdue University as your institutional affiliation, but when you get to “Organization” start typing Purdue, and you should see “Purdue University, Innovation for International Development (I2D) Lab” pop up. After your member profile is set, you can add your innovation description and upload associated content. If you have any questions, or want some assistance in setting up your information, just let us know!
