Bridger McGaw, director of athenaEnvironment at athenahealth, said, "Our sponsorship of Mass Innovation Nights aligns with our goal of showcasing new innovative companies working to bring their visions of how to improve health care to life. This is also why we created More Disruption Please (MDP), an athenahealth initiative that brings together like-minded innovators, entrepreneurs, companies and investors who share our desire to make health care work as it should through openness and connectivity to disruptive solutions. Mass Innovation Nights shares our vision of changing the status quo in health care and we are thrilled to welcome this innovative community to Watertown."
"Mass Innovation Night events showcase the best new local products and provide beneficial networking opportunities," said Bobbie Carlton, co-founder of Mass Innovation Nights. "Part of our mission is to link start-ups with industry leaders like athenahealth and this month's media partner, MedTech Boston."

This can be done through social media: a tweet, a blog post, a posted photo or video, or in conversation. The events have produced thousands of tweets, blog posts, status updates, online videos and pictures.
