Last week we were thrilled to kick off the return of IDTechUp and introduce our visiting Kenyan Seeding Labs Fellows all in one go.

IDTechUp is a meetup for anyone interested in the application of science and technology for developing world issues. Seeding Labs and MIT’s famous Joost Bonsen hosted this monthly event for several years and we’re delighted to bring it back. IDTechUp will be happening every 3^rd Thursday in the Venture Café at the Cambridge Innovation Center.

This week’s IDTechUp was especially exciting because it gave us the chance to introduce our 2010 Seeding Labs/Novartis Fellows to all our Boston-based friends. These Fellows - four professors from Kenyatta University in Nairobi - are spending the summer with us and with our partner Novartis. They are working in the labs at Novartis and meeting new colleagues around the area. As you can see – many friends old and new came out to enjoy the snacks, beer and great conversations.

Save the date and come to the next IDTechUp – July 15^th!
