Scope and content
Three years after assuming the chair of the Canadian Foundation for Innovation, Dr. Evans became a moving force behind the creation of the Medical and Related Science Research District (MaRS) in Toronto.
The series begins with files on the creation of MaRS (initially Toronto Biotechnology Commercialization Centre), followed by meetings (board, planning, marketing, etc.) and associated correspondence, notes and reports, including corporate presentations, arranged chronologically. The volume of correspondence increases from mid-2003 and one of the meetings documented in detail is with the Minster of Health. Reproductions of photographs are incorporated into some of the reports and presentations.
