“Boston
may overtake Silicon Valley at the top of the biotech heap,” reports Antonio
Regalado for MIT Technology Review. Silicon Valley “has ruled for years in
both computer technology and biotechnology,” he says—but recently “there are
signs that Boston and adjacent Cambridge (specifically the area around Kendall
Square, near MIT) might just break away and take the lead.”
In April, adds Antonio, “the Cambridge City Council approved
an MIT petition to develop 26 acres around its campus and put up buildings
twice as high as currently.”
Exciting stuff, I’d say, for what Fox News calls the
second most-exciting city in America.
