Subject: Welcome Joe Krok – Office of Industry Partnerships
The Office of Industry Partnerships (OIP) is incredibly excited to announce our first new hire of many! Please send a warm Purdue welcome to Joe Krok as he starts officially tomorrow morning as Executive Director, Office of Industry Partnerships.
Joe comes to us after a 21-year career at Rolls-Royce where his most recent role was Program Lead, University Research Partnerships. This experience makes him a perfect fit for OIP as he will lead a team of individuals working to build partnerships between Purdue and industry. More specifically, Joe will personally be responsible for a portfolio of companies in the national security and technology industry sector and his teammates will be managing companies in the telecommunications/semiconductor, chemical and energy, and construction and transportation industry sectors.
OIP is located in Convergence Center, so please come over and visit and introduce yourself to Joe and our team if you are on campus.
Take care and have a great week.
Nathan
