Dr. Susan Hockfield to join MIT alumnus Richard Simmons of Allegheny Technologies for reception and dialogue

Please join the Enterprise Forum Pittsburgh on Friday, October 24th as they welcome MIT president Dr. Susan Hockfield to her first Forum appearance, together with Richard P. Simmons, Chairman Emeritus of Allegheny Technologies. The evening begins with a reception, followed by a lively dialogue between our guests about the role of academic institutions in the innovation economy.

“We’re thrilled to welcome President Hockfield,” says Tim Cunningham, the Forum’s board chair. “She’s right at the intersection of where universities meet innovation, which is also our focus here in Pittsburgh. Dick Simmons understands that dynamic, and their dialogue is sure to be interesting. We look forward to giving everyone the chance to meet them both.”
