Mayor Bloomberg Announces New Dean of Technion-Cornell Innovation Institute
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today announced that Professor Daniel P. Huttenlocher, Cornell University’s Dean of Computing and Information Sciences, has been named Cornell Vice Provost and founding Dean of the university’s historic tech campus, home of the Technion-Cornell Innovation Institute. Cathy Dove, currently associate dean in Cornell’s College of Engineering, will co-lead the campus as Vice President, and Technion Professor Craig Gotsman will serve as the founding director of the Technion-Cornell Innovation Institute.
Said NYCEDC President Seth Pinsky, “With the selection of Cornell and the Technion, we were fortunate to find the perfect partners — two world-class institutions which together shared our vision of how to change the City’s economy forever. To fulfill this bold vision will require strong leadership, and there are no leaders better equipped for this challenge than Dan Huttenlocher, Cathy Dove and Craig Gotsman. With this team at the helm, the NYC Tech campus will soon begin creating the new technologies and businesses that will ensure our place as the undisputed world capital of innovation.”
