The eBusiness Research Lunch Seminars explore new and ongoing research
in an informal setting conducive to an open exchange of ideas to aid
the presenters in their research. They are held Wednesdays, 12 - 1:30
pm, in the conference room of NE20-336, the Center for eBusiness@MIT.
NE20-336 is on the third floor of 3 Cambridge Center, a commercial

above the MIT Coop, with entrance next to Legal Seafoods. The
Kendall/MIT stop on the MBTA Red Line is immediately adjacent.
Lunch will be provided. To aid us in our lunch order RSVP to eBusiness@MIT.EDU.
