Great to have 
Martha Bonilla-Peñalosa join me on 
MaximizingProgress.tv tonight! 

 Martha's an urban planner and development economist most recently working as the global program coordinator for the 
Green Hub initiative at the 
CoLab Community Innovators Lab and teacher of the 
MIT IDG practicum class.  This practicum had a dozen city planning students from MIT connect with their local partners from Universidad Tecnologica de Bolivar (UTB) over fall and MIT's IAP January period thinking about 
efficiency, mobility, and food security and the future plans for a 
Cartagena urban marketplace.   She and I know each other from when she orchestrated the first Institutional Leadership Dialogue, a remarkable MIT program called 
The Renewal of Research Universities: Building Capacities    for    Technological    Innovation with two dozen university presidents from her home country, 
Colombia, seen here on my MIT Innovation Tour of campus...
