SEVENTYSIX CAPITAL PARTNERS WITH MICROSOFT, SCIENCE CENTER AND WEXFORD TO BRING
MICROSOFT INNOVATION CENTER TO PHILADELPHIA
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

PHILADELPHIA - (April 4, 2016) -
A new Microsoft Innovation Center (MIC) will open to the public at uCity Square 
in Philadelphia this summer. The MIC, which is the result of a partnership between
Microsoft Corp., SeventySix Capital, the University City Science Center and Wexford
Science & Technology, will be the first in the region and the third in the U.S.,
 with other locations in Atlanta and Miami.

"This is an amazing win for Philadelphia! Jon Powell, our team at SeventySix Capital
and I are thrilled to see our hard work pay off to attract Microsoft, a Fortune 
50 tech company, to our city."
Wayne Kimmel, Managing Partner, SeventySix Capital

The Innovation Center complements and enhances Microsoft's regional presence, which
includes an office in Malvern and a Microsoft Store at King of Prussia Mall. Currently
there are over 350 Microsoft employees in the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
Located on the ground floor of the Science Center's corporate headquarters at 3711
Market Street, the MIC will be equipped with the latest Microsoft technology. Through
a combination of programming and outreach activities, Microsoft - working closely
with its local partners the Science Center and SeventySix Capital - will seek to
 spur economic development and create new opportunities for the local tech startup
community. Further, the MIC will host activities that will bring underrepresented
groups to greater awareness of and involvement with STEM activities and careers.
"This is an amazing win for Philadelphia! Jon Powell, our team (Chad Stender, Lisa
Pliskin, and Bob Birkbeck) at SeventySix Capital and I are thrilled to see our hard
work pay off to attract Microsoft, a Fortune 50 tech company, to our city." says
 Wayne Kimmel, Managing Partner of SeventySix Capital. "Our shared vision with Jeff
Friedman at Microsoft to build an open and accessible venue to inspire all people
- to explore and learn about the latest technological innovations will become a 
reality this summer during the DNC and beyond because of our partnership with the
Science Center. The MIC will be the legacy of the DNC and will spur future entrepreneurs
to create businesses and technologies to change the world!"
"Bringing Microsoft to Philadelphia and uCity Square is a game changer on many levels,"
says Science Center President & CEO Stephen S. Tang, Ph.D., MBA. "Not only have 
we attracted a large tech company to our city, but the MIC also offers a means to
engage our neighborhood, innovation, and entrepreneurial communities and give them
access to Microsoft technology and training. It took a true partnership between 
SeventySix Capital, Microsoft, Wexford and the Science Center to make this happen."
"We are thrilled to partner with SeventySix Capital, the University City Science
 Center and Wexford Science & Technology, to bring technology and resources to the
great city of Philadelphia," said Jeff Friedman, Director of Modern Government in
Microsoft's State and Local Government Solutions Group. "MIC's are part of Microsoft's
broader strategy to empower developers and entrepreneurs, extending into local metro
markets to help startups grow their business with technology and services such as
cloud computing, developer tools, software and open source technologies."
The MIC will open in time for the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in July and
will serve as a hotbed of Microsoft activity during the convention, with a number
of programs and events that explore the intersection of technology and civic engagement.
After the DNC, Microsoft, the Science Center and SeventySix Capital will develop
 and deliver a suite of ongoing technology and innovation focused programming that
will offer the startup, entrepreneurial, academic and neighborhood communities access
to Microsoft resources and expertise.
"Microsoft's presence in uCity Square will enhance our community of ingenuity and
become a catalyst to continue innovation and economic growth in our city," says 
Joe Reagan, Vice President at Wexford Science & Technology. "With this opportunity,
Philadelphia's flourishing premiere innovation district, uCity Square, will work
 in tandem with Microsoft to attract talent and companies that will bring businesses
of all sizes together to advance technology and collaboration. We're excited to 
see what the future holds for uCity Square."
