Your Christmas Gift Will Pale in Comparison
October 20, 2010
Harvard Business School received the largest international gift in its 102-year history: $50M from Tata Companies, the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust, and the Tata Education and Development Trust. The group has a combined market cap of $80B. The gift will go toward funding academic and residential buildings on campus. HBS hopes to break ground on Tata Hall for its executive education program next spring. Also a few days ago, the University announced that next fall it will open its first lab for innovation and entrepreneurship in a former WGBH building on Western Avenue. Above, we snapped one of the old GBH haunts. That open ?field? next to it is actually the site where Harvard had to halt construction of a major new academic project. |
