Providing innovators with a place to connect with the media, influential bloggers, the marketplace and each other.
We’re doing another theme night! (July was such a wild success with the Green/Clean cluster.) As you know, we believe there is innovation going on in every industry and the FOOD industry is no exception, so we reached out into the food-oriented innovation community and found some great companies to feature and not just folks who prepare and supply food! All these companies are doing something innovative with food and eating. Special thanks to Janet Morgenstern Passani from Jute Marketing, Kelley Lynn Kassa from Midnight Oil Writing, Leah Graves and others who helped with introductions.

It’s going to be a fun Mass Innovation Nights. We’re back at the Waltham IBM Innovation Center and, in addition to our usual assortment of new and innovate products, we’re hosting a cluster of green and/or clean products.
It may have been a Thursday night, but it was still Mass Innovation Nights in Waltham at the IBM Innovation Center. Once again ably hosted by our friends at IBM, we gathered to check out what’s new in Massachusetts innovation and blogged, tweeted, videoed and networked! We also welcomed the Boston-area finalists from SmartCamp and heard from the winner. (Helpful hint: you can still enter SmartCamp in other locations!) It was also part of New England Innovation Month — go #NEInno.

Last year Scott Kirsner gathered together a group of folks to declare June Innovation Month in New England. It was nice to see the attention being paid to local innovation and maybe Scott’s columns, the mentions in numerous blogs and the consolidated calendar helped to encourage a few more people to get out and see what others were doing.

Happy Birthday!
That’s right, it’s been a full year since Bobbie Carlton and Dan Englander started bringing together the Boston-based innovation community to meet, network, and celebrate the launch of new products ranging from web software, to alternative energy, to healthcare, to . . . popsicles. We celebrated Mass Innovation Night’s first anniversary at the IBM Innovation Center in Waltham due to the flooding at the Charles River Museum of Industry (our regular location). Thanks to the folks at IBM for hosting the event at short notice, and thanks to EditMe for providing the delicious cake. (And when you get that tax refund check, consider donating some of it towards the Museum’s cleanup expenses; you did remember to file your taxes, right?)
