TRANSCRIPT
The Creativity Conference at Southern Oregon University is where creativity and innovation meet. The annual Creativity Conference at SOU brings together the leading creativity scholars and
practitioners from around the world for a wide range of presentations, discussions, and hands-on demonstrations. Every year features different keynote and invited speakers featuring the best and brightest creativity scholars. These experts bring creative thinking and innovation not only to their

Dan DeNeui is the Director of Social Sciences at Southern Oregon University, Professor of Psychology, and the Executive Director of the annual Creativity Conference at hosted at the university. Dr. DeNeui is a Social Psychologist who, in addition to his work with the Creativity Conference, works on projects that promote student success in higher education. The Creativity Conference was organized to bring innovation and creativity to all kinds of problems, including into areas that aren’t traditionally associated with creativity, "We typically don't think of creativity in the scientific sense," says DeNeui. "But increasingly, the complex problems that our world faces require innovation and creativity. We're hoping by bringing that into fields that don't typically see that, that will help us solve those kinds of problems."
Mark Runco is currently the Director of Creativity Research and Programming at Southern Oregon University. He is the editor of the Creativity Research Journal, a professor, and a leading creativity scholar who is active in empirical research
and has published cognitive, economic, genetic, historical, developmental, and educational books and articles on the topic. To help people fulfill their capacity for creativity, he has devised a battery of tests that measures creative potential
and performance. He teaches a variety of graduate and undergraduate classes on creativity and innovation, and every year he organizes the Creativity Conference at Southern Oregon University.
