Brad Smith, Microsoft’s General Counsel and Executive Vice President for Legal and Corporate Affairs, delivered the second UW CSE Distinguished Lecture of the 2012-13 academic year today – “Creating an Environment for Innovation.”
And Christmas came early – Brad surprised the first two students to ask post-talk questions with the gift of a Microsoft Surface!
The next CSE Distinguished Lecture will be on November 13 – renowned economist Susan Athey on “Machine Learning meets Economics: Using Theory, Data, and Experiments to Design Markets.”
