Gordon S. Jones has been named the director of the Harvard innovation lab, an initiative set to launch later this year that aims to foster team-based and entrepreneurial activities, Harvard University said today.
Part of the lab's mandate is to also provide a forum, both physically and virtually, for interactions among students, faculty, alumni, and the surrounding community, Harvard said in a press release.
Along with the Harvard Business School, the lab will occupy space at 125 Western Ave. in Allston, a building that formerly housed the WGBH-TV offices and studios. The lab will "complement Mayor Thomas M. Menino's Innovation agenda and help revitalize Western Avenue," the release added.
