Hall of Fame--Canzano - Riding Technology to the Cutting-edge

Perhaps it was partly Land's encouragement and a dose of geographical factors that paved the path for Canzano and Acme. During his formative years with Acme, Boston was known as a hub (among other things) for companies on the leading edge of advancements. Route 128 was dubbed "Technology Highway," and Beantown boasted the likes of Digital Equipment, Lotus, Polaroid and Wang. Those heavy hitters were looking to play technological hardball; Canzano and Acme were game.
