Update from Eduardo Sastre! Eduardo had the opportunity to attend the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for Ragon Institute of Mass General, MIT, and Harvard on June 17, 2024. This ceremony celebrated their new headquarters building which opened in Cambridge. According to a news article on their website, "The new 323,000 square-foot space, located in the heart of Kendall Square at 600 Main St., includes lab and work space and is Leed Gold certified by the US Green Building Council. Designed with sustainability in mind, the new Ragon Institute features outdoor spaces with an array of vegetation, blue roof systems that retain and control water, a green roof, as well as other energy efficient materials and designs. In addition to being a hub for medical innovation, the Ragon Institute will also serve as a community gathering place for area residents and will host community education programs designed to engage underrepresented high school and undergraduate students in medical science and research." Eduardo was invited to assist with this exciting event and had the opportunity to see Jonathan Kraft (who is Chair of Mass General Brigham’s Board of Trustees) after working for him at the construction of the Gillette Stadium, home of the five-time Super Bowl champion New England Patriots. He also had the chance to hear from the presidents of a Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and Mass General Brigham, Ragon Institute’s three member institutions. In addition, Susan and Terry Ragon, the benefactors of the Ragon Institute, were in attendance. What a wonderful achievement that will help the Ragon Institute's misson for curing human disease! #ArrowTimeConsultants #efficiency #collaboration #partnership #scheduling #reports #projectmanagement #SmallBusiness #MinorityOwnedBusiness #SmallBusinessConsulting #constructionconsulting #constructionindustry #innovation #research #medicalresearch #Harvard #MIT #MassGeneral #RagonInstitute #science #energyefficiency #sustainability #community #

🌟 From the Wisconsin Biohealth Tech Hub! 🌟 We're thrilled to share insights from a recent panel discussion held during the Universities of Wisconsin Board of Regents meeting on Feb. 9. Industry leaders and campus experts came together to delve into the transformative potential of public-private partnerships in driving innovation and economic growth. Ushering in a new era of innovation and economic growth (wisc.edu) Highlighted in the discussion were Wendy Harris, Regional Innovation Officer for the Wisconsin Biohealth Technology & Innovation Hub, and Anjon Audhya, Senior Associate Dean for Basic Research, Biotechnology, and Graduate Studies at the UW School of Medicine and Public Health and BioForward Board Member. As the panel underscored, University of Wisconsin-Madison, alongside the state, is at the forefront of catalyzing innovation and economic advancement, fueled by enhanced collaborations between academia, industry, and other key stakeholders. The focus on leveraging federal funding opportunities, such as the Build Back Better Regional Challenge and the National Science Foundation Engines program, demonstrates a concerted effort to maximize resources for impactful initiatives. Of particular note is Wisconsin's participation in the Phase 1 application for the U.S. Department of Commerce U.S. Economic Development Administration Regional Technology & Innovation Hub program. Wendy Harris is spearheading the consortium's Phase 2 application, potentially unlocking substantial federal grants to further propel biohealth innovation in the region. Anjon Audhya emphasized the crucial connection between industry and universities, highlighting the strength of partnerships in driving progress. These insights underscore the pivotal role of collaborative efforts in fostering groundbreaking research and driving economic prosperity. As we embark on bold new initiatives to address global challenges, Chancellor Jennifer Mnookin's words resonate: "We have a lot to be proud of. My job — our job — is to make this institution even a step stronger — by building on this excellence and also by thinking in big, bold ways about where we can take a quantum leap forward to serve this state and the world on a whole new level." Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to forge ahead in the realm of biohealth innovation and beyond! 👩🔬🚀 #edatechhubs #wibiohealthtechhub #WisconsinInnovation #PublicPrivatePartnerships
