MNT Monthly Update: March

AI Video Pilot to explain first five years of MNT-EC


March 2026 MNT Monthly Update

First, we would love for you to follow us on the MNT-EC LinkedIn page — we’ve grown a ton, like by hundreds this year. 

Second, we appreciate all the visits and positive notes on the News & Blog section: Think Small. We hope you’ll visit and scroll through the last few months. 

Thank you for both of these growth opportunities!!

Five Years of Building Together redux

Last month, we wrote, “In a joint reflection, Dr. Jared Ashcroft and Center Director Billie Copley look back on MNT-EC’s first five years.” Then, someone had the idea to create a video of the five years… using AI tools. You can read / watch / view the results, honestly, the bloopers of that effort. We are far from done, but our fearless leaders suggested we show the journey. Please enjoy the five video takes, all AI generated, on This Week in Small

This might pique your interest.
