Cambridge Historical Society presents Part 1, "Why Cambridge?" of a 2-part symposium, "Made in Cambridge: What's Happening in Kendall Square?"


We'll be talking about the key elements to establishing the biotech industry in Cambridge.


Our speakers will be answering questions like- Why here and not somewhere else? What does innovation mean to us? In hindsight could things have happened differently here?


Our moderator is Henrietta Davis, former Mayor of Cambridge.
Our speakers are Sam Lipson, Director of Environmental Health at Cambridge Public Health; Robin Wolfe Scheffler, Historian; and Dr. Phillip Sharp, Institute Professor, Koch Institute for Integrative Cancer Research at MIT.
