<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Calibri" size="3">As part of their curriculum, the executive MBAs will be learning about the MIT and Cambridge/MA Innovation and Entrepreneurial ecosystem and how it functions. The scientific community is clearly an essential
part of this ecosystem and we would like to bring EMBAs and Scientists together in two networking events. This will give you the opportunity to make a personal connection with highly placed executives in diverse fields such as the pharmaceutical and biotech
industry (from Pfizer, Shire, Biogen Idec, etc), energy and power (Chevron, Schlumberger, etc), software and technology (Akamai, Dell, Qualcomm, Applied Materials, etc.), finance (Deutsche Bank, Fidelity, etc.), the military, local hospitals, and many others
(These are active executives who fly to Cambridge once every 4-6 weeks to complete an intensive 14 month MBA program)<u></u><u></u></font></p>
