Data Link Institute Connects with Industry Giants

Roger Mayer, professor in the NC State Poole College of Management’s Department of Management, Innovation and Entrepreneurship, presented a session on trust at a seminar hosted by the Data LInk Institute, a private University College in Tema, Ghana.
