Stanger is placed over Winrock hub

Winrock International announced Errin Stanger has been named director of the nonprofit's Arkansas Regional Innovation Hub.

Stanger has been with Winrock's Innovation Hub since its founding in 2014, according to a news release from the nonprofit.

"Errin's long history with the Innovation Hub, and her commitment to creativity and equity make her uniquely positioned to lead the Hub team to solve new challenges," said Linsley Kinkade, senior director of Winrock's U.S. Programs in a news release.

In October, the nonprofit announced that it was moving its headquarter across the Arkansas River to North Little Rock's Argenta Arts District. Stanger will be the first woman to lead Winrock's Innovation Hub.
