Date: Wednesday, June 10, 2009
Time: 8:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Earlier this year, Governor Patrick called for the establishment of a collaborative framework between industry, academia, and government to advance policy and an action agenda to improve the IT sector's competitiveness.
The Organizing Committee of this emerging effort invites you to participate in the development of this important work on June 10th. This meeting is the start of an extended dialogue that will bring together industry and academic leaders to embrace the challenge of expanding the region's preeminence in the innovation sectors.
Attendees must register for this event. Space will be limited with participation provided on a first come, first serve basis. Directions to Microsoft can be found here with parking available onsite. We encourage as many participants as possible to use public transportation. In the event that the garage becomes full, additional parking can be found off of Ames Street in Cambridge Center.
