With MIT Campus in Kendall Square as its center, academics, researchers, students, spin-off companies, start-ups and large companies have built, within a few miles, an impressively interactive innovation ecosystem in which many of the ideas are created. of the future.
The presence of "talented" Greeks in the Boston innovation ecosystem is important.
