Info | Patrick Larkin is Deputy Director for the Massachusetts Technology Collaborative (MTC) and Director of the John Adams Innovation Institute. MTC is a statewide economic development agency, which acts as a catalyst among industry, government and academia to stimulate expansion of the state’s innovation economy.
As part of the Economic Stimulus Bill recently enacted by the Massachusetts Legislature and signed into law by Governor Romney, MTC established the John Adams Innovation Institute – an economic development initiative dedicated to creating and maintaining a more favorable and responsive environment for the development, growth, attraction and retention of technology-intensive and innovation-driven enterprises. Mr. Larkin is leading the implementation of this initiative, which is focused on spurring technology-based economic development across the Commonwealth.
Pat brings more than 12 years of economic development experience (nine years with MTC) and a proven track record of success in economic affairs. Among his accomplishments, Pat is responsible for some of MTC’s more celebrated initiatives such as piloting the FedTech program which matured into today’s Cluster’s Program, conceptualizing much of MTC’s Renewable Energy Trust and championing the nationally–renowned Berkshire Connect initiative.
Prior to his work at MTC, Mr. Larkin served as Director of Federal/State Relations for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in Washington , D.C. and was appointed in 1993 to serve as Deputy Secretary for Defense Diversification and Technology Transfer for the Executive Office of Economic Affairs in Massachusetts .
Mr. Larkin served from 1979 to 1991 as top aide to the late Congressman Silvio O. Conte (R.-MA). He was responsible for all policy and programmatic activities within the Congressman’s personal office and was responsible for oversight of the Congressman’s activities on the House Appropriations Committee, where he served as the Ranking Minority Member from 1979 to 1991.
