According to Bisnow, Craven said that “…Babson College’s expansion to Downtown, moving to a more modern and accessible location, is helping the school attract graduate students where they work, which is increasingly Downtown. The new location also offers alumni a convenient and innovative space for networking, co-working and more. Nearly half of all Babson alumni – about 16,000 graduates – live or work in greater Boston, and the eight largest employers of Babson graduates are Boston-based companies. A Downtown location is essential to Babson being part of the fabric of the city….”
