Batten Hall is home to the Harvard Innovation Lab, or i-lab, designed to foster team-based and entrepreneurial activities and to deepen interactions among students, faculty, and entrepreneurs across Harvard University and the Boston community. The i-lab hosts lectures, panel discussions, and presentations that are open to the public, as well as networking events for student teams, local businesses, and nonprofits. On the 2nd and 3rd floors of Batten are MBA classrooms (“hives”), designed for field method teaching.
Batten Hall is named in honor of media pioneer and entrepreneur Frank Batten (MBA 1952). For more information about the history of Batten Hall, click here.
