How To Build Community in a Networked Economy

Microsoft NERD Center, 1 Memorial Drive, Cambridge MA

May 10, 2011 @ 7:30 am - 9:30 am

“How To Build Community in a Networked Economy”

We all know real estate and urban development play integral parts in creating a community — and community dictates what is built and when.  But in an increasingly networked economy, with most people behind computer screens for long hours every day, what does “community” even look like anymore? And why is it all the more important in an innovation district?

Join us on May 10th at the Microsoft NERD Center for Solomon McCown’s 15th SM& Presents panel on how places that leverage community to spur innovation are the way of the future.

Featuring:

  • Thomas Andrews, Executive Vice President & Regional Market Director, Alexandria Real Estate Equities, Inc.
  • Travis McCready, Executive Director, Kendall Square Association
  • Diane Paulus, Artistic Director, American Repertory Theater
  • Brent D. Ryan, Assistant Professor in Urban Design & Public Policy, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  • Sara Spaulding, Senior Director, Microsoft New England R&D Center
  • And moderator Tina Cassidy, Vice President, Solomon McCown & Company

Tuesday, May 10 from 7:30 – 9:30 a.m. at the Microsoft NERD Center at One Memorial Drive in Cambridge
