Design unveiled for Weiss/Manfredi building at U of T
Thanks to an historic gift to the University of Toronto from Gerald Schwartz and Heather Reisman, the soon-to-be built Schwartz Reisman Innovation Centre will accelerate innovation in Toronto and Canada by creating the country?s largest university-based innovation node. The $100-million investment is the largest donation in U of T?s history and the largest gift ever to the Canadian innovation sector.
The gift will help construct a 750,000-square-foot complex designed to anchor U of T?s unique cluster of world-leading artificial intelligence scientists and biomedical experts, its world-class entrepreneurship network, and the country?s largest concentration of student- and faculty-led startups.
The gift will also support the launch of the newly conceived Schwartz Reisman Institute for Technology and Society, whose mission will be to explore and address the ethical and societal implications of AI and other emerging technologies. The Institute will facilitate cross-disciplinary research and collaboration and will draw on U of T?s signature strengths in the sciences, humanities and social sciences to explore the benefits and challenges that AI, biotechnology, and other technological advances present for our economy, our society and our day-to-day lives.
