txlaw Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Check out what's opening in Waterloo and the ambitions for the new research center: http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-09-19/blackberry-creator-lazaridis-puts-100-million-toward-nano-plan.html Whatever you think of RIM's investment, FFH investors should be happy that Mr. Watsa and HWIC are linked into the tech community in Waterloo. Perhaps Waterloo, with the university, RIM, and this new "Bell Labs", will one day take the mantle of Canada's Silicon Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberty Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 I wish more financially successful people gave more money to scientific endeavors. That's definitely a great thing he did. So he deserves kudos for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
