The launch party for Cambridge Phenomenon: 50 Years of Innovation and Enterprise is set to take place at the University of Cambridge Senate House on 8th May 2012.

With a foreword written by Microsoft founder and philanthropist Bill Gates KBE, the book celebrates the incredible growth of the Cambridge tech cluster of the last fifty years, which has laid the groundwork for the next generation of innovators and entrepreneurs in the region.

The Vice Chancellor of the University of Cambridge will be speaking at the event, and invitations have gone out to senior Cabinet ministers, local MPs including Julian Huppert and the Cambridge Phenomenon Advisory Board.
