though we asked for ten years from now, my hope is that we could even do it quicker. i'm also happy to announce relately, that as part of what i have been trying to do in district seven, besides focusing on the pedestrian safety, on monday, and we will be taking off our student crossing guard program. which is the beginning of educating young people about safety and what role they play when it comes to pedestrian safety. and so i am happy that maybe, in discussion with part of the solution, for the visions zero, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> and commissioner kim? >> actually, i would just want to ditto on commissioner's comments and i just want to thank chair avalos for putting this together, i think that if

and evan and bay shore from augusta and to twenth and 25th. and i also just wanted to acknowledge that sfmta has made a significant concerted effort to prioritize pedestrian, or just, safety in the streets as well as pedestrian, or specifically pedestrian safety and it is really comforting to know that we are in sync. and so thank you to your leadership on establishing this body. thank you. >> and i also want to thank commissioner mar and his office as well for the idea behind the vision zero committee and i think that you are coming in from his office, and i think that it is a really important, you know, plan that we are putting forward. to actually have a committee level discussion about our vision zero projects, last week, at the valentines press conference, there was a call for us that it is much more than just passing resolutions

that we really have to make sure that the city is doing everything that it can do. and i think that having a committee that is not just oversight but it is really about collaboration and cooperation and how do we make sure that we are linking up our departments, and make sure that we are meeting our milestones when it comes to enforcement and education and engineering. and how do we be sure that we have a public venue to report on the progress that we are making, so it is in the light of collaboration that we are coming for ward and we want to thank you for supporting this subcommittee. >> and okay, if there are know other comments or questions, we can go on to public comment. seeing none, we will close public comment. >> and colleagues, could we take this item same house same call? >> and the item passes. >> next item, please? >> item 14, introduction of new items, this is a information item. >> colleagues, any new items?

>> everybody to the world and enter galactic rocket i'm joel we have the great honor and pleasure of ownership this building but having haley here we love you guys focused on digital health this is your grand opening. so we've getting got a set period of time we're going to have an interesting panel discussion. most of you know mayor ed lee was sworn in two years ago january 8, 2012, to replace naumd and richard who runs our

bay area operation we broke ground back in 2005 mission bay was i think a call was here and we did the total low beautiful bluegrass building we had no tenant who would ever come to mission bay now look at it today. we made a good decision. so mayor ed lee has previously served as intern mayor and focused on government efficiencies welding we'd love to have you go to washington >> what did that do. >> he introduced the cities first 10 year plan and he's been either in the city and county

since 1989 and at the first asian-american mayor. welcome sir, we're god to have you (clapping.) to his immediate left it princess laef i'm kidding haley who is the founder and ceo of rock health one of the most creativity thinkers as you know they have the fund for the digital fund and she's responsible for the building of partners and overseeing the strategic direction. she has been named one of the telephone enterprise for cnn's and one of the 15 women to work in the tech and she had an odd

title. she is a harvard mba and she imagined would could be. and finally, i want to introduce the moderator and editor and i'm going to turn it over to him from harrod and mit and come to san francisco. well everybody it's an honor and pleasure to have you here (clapping.) it's an honor to be here to moderate our latin america panel we've got 15 minutes. i'm recordings this because i'm going to a share it. but i'm going to start with you mayor ed lee. the board of supervisors designated mission bay as a development district in 1998.

if you came here you would have seen parking lots and train tracks. the transformation has been credible. for a long time there wasn't a call place. how does the transformation here fit into our vision so far the high tech in san francisco and how did the health incubator fit into the plan >> first of all, i wish everybody a happy new year. it's a wonderful time to be here in 0 san francisco. to personally congratulate haley and joel for your wonderful work. there's one more site missing when willie brown offered the site and my predecessors naumd took over and put stem down here in signaled some hard things

there's one more vision besides the railroads that was my driving rank rage you i range you would have seen me there i'm imperfect my golf shot. willie came and said we've got to change mission bay you need to a head up the mapping by the way, he building if i build it they've come. he already saw not only the idea of having a new sector on health care but with company but when gavin took over he invited stem to come to the center and that really signaled a ground work with usc f now we have bio life

companies 50 in mission bay are bio life scientists science. we have some at gladstone and terry at bear and others. you've got 25 hundred usc f faculty and techs. when he said we'll build it and they come if we took an infrastructure approach and built the infrastructure that a new sector low merger and it has. when you see did pharmaceutical companies here with the hospital it will open in 2015 and another

hotel pop up and family houseraising money at the stephen's house the other day it will house families to come through the treatment but you'll also see the innovation reflected here. i'm glad to see ray cell here. your not only in the morning an incubator but a inventor to get together with other tech companies and introduce them to the relationship he's pr this is what mission bay is all about no matter where here in hospitality or manufacturing and now in digital health care.

i love this blend. i was introduced to this when i was talked about this and she introduced the idea to put all the health data symbol clouds and allow us to astronomer health care and what a timing it would be when we're on the vertigo of implementing the care act we're trying to look at the bridge time of the digital movement to the health care movement and rock health it perfect. i'm excited to be here but also the land use decisions we made with alexander at the time, we took you took a lot of risks with us you didn't know from one mayor to another whether we

would change that i want to consider willie brown and definitely credit naumd for appointing me to this position i'm the third in section so this sector got ceded we used the redevelopment monies and the tax increment money to build the infrastructure to allow the lives are buildings to go up. this is the magic how do you revitalize our old shipyard and you've got to revitalize our cities this is what we've done w in partnership with the encounter institutions we've had. i will continue to say thank you to u s f we've attracted all

those great research labs and i think they're here because of the talent per san francisco is a 24r5e7b9 attracter i'm going to add myself to that even though i have a march 10th glass i'm trying to change my imagine i have to be more like the big mayors >> not the mayor of attorney respondent (laughter). >> but i say lecture regularly us kelly he got blessed with the highest honor from his origin which is the origin of the british empire. and this is yet again another example of innovation and the

spirit we have. our story is working in looking toward the industry of infrastructure i know that diseases we talk about so threatening those days will i know in our lifetimes be ended with the fantastic discoveries we'll have with the blepd of digital health our technology and health care but ultimately it is the spirit of the people of this city that attract other people who want to solve problems and we'll solve many of the world's problem right here. congratulations raqeul >> so haley let me turn to you i started rock health in 2010 and made a decision to move into

an office on grant straight and chinatown. till looking for your office you have to go through the scarf shop. it was fantastically though and it's obviously a reliant and robust part of town. now your moving to mission bay. how and when did you decide to move and graph it's tattoo this neighborhood and how you wanted the space to look and feel and reinvent the physical space >> how many people have been to our chinatown office you know what an upgrade this is. it's lovely to welcome you all here. when we decided to move the office was ready for us to leave

the decision was a purely economic decision we wanted to safe neighborhoods and one we could afford so we ended up in chinatown but it was time for us to expand and be in a place that recognize the vision we have. so it was really great when we met alexander and we talked about having better infrastructure and better real estate to the companies we support. it maid make sense to be in mission bay not only for the medical research but the activity from the medication side but also the technology. we've accepted away from sylmar and rock health is in the middle it was a no-brainer. being on the first floor was

exciting as well as because of the great advertising and ultimately it lend the feel of having a community and we bring people here all the time. yesterday we had a group of doctors who hung out here so if anyone has a group to share our space we want to be able to welcome our groups that have the same vision. we worked with the architect to build this space out to our needs they studied our needs in chinatown the way we used the space and we can have community space here no workshops and event while entrepreneurs are working on the other side. we have break out rooms that we put together and we're able to

plan this out it has been 6 months it was a thought of move. we made this space with alexandra >> what kinds of interactions do you think you'll have here. >> well-being coloring to the clinicians we'll have them right there. we see people walking bye and we wave and whatever we have events it's easier for them to get to so for any of our partners those we work with those being closer to the freeway and being able to park are around here. our partners will say it was difficult to get to the subway

it's easier now. super so joel alley draw real estate equities is not only the larger real estate company across the country right but to date most of your tenants have been traditionally bio tech companies; right? with wet labs; right? so digital life is different i'm curious where do you think the digital health will fit a year from now or 15 years from now and what can alexandra do it's a bridge between digital and health >> we actually have a board vision we started in 1994 and 14rbd our 2w0ub9 of 24th

anniversary. so we started with a business plan and a mindset to be at the intersection of the real estate longer value but boarder this and that that's a huge industry it employes 3 and a half million people. but one of the first things we did in the bay are area we bought a set of buildings from a company that was leaving and larry came along and did google's first champions and put in a skateboard park so we had some interesting issues then we started a new venture headed by amanda who made the intro to us

personally so we've invest in google in a budget share and still own part of that stock. all return is one thousand .678 times so the money we've invested equally to exceed the benchmark everyone we are in new york and cambridge and a san diego etc., he ever one of those cities is heavy being driven by technology and life science. the areas we have a huge human capital and brain function advantage over the rest of the world we expect our tenant to be more collaborative and

innovative where you have engineering and chemical and engineering and biological so we see our future it heavy solar driven enterprise. haley mentioned when we met the health rock people we were blown away we've got to work and invest together it was a knoll team so that's how we think about things >> so you can see users working with the rock health folks. >> super we could go on for hours it's an existing event but we're going to move on to the ribbon cutting ceremony. >> (cheering)
