Cambridge Nonprofit Moving to Medford

Management Sciences for Health, a nonprofit that helps developing countries establish healthcare systems, is moving from Cambridge to 200 Rivers Edge Drive in Medford, Mayor Michael McGlynn announced at the site Tuesday.

The nonprofit will occupy the vacant 40,000-square-foot space remaining in the building, he said.

McGlynn said now that the 115,000-square-foot building is full, developer John Preotle, of Preotle, Lane & Associates, has discussed constructing another building at the site.

State Rep. Paul Donato said the overall site is in its “embryotic stages” at the press conference.

Greg Bialecki, the state’s secretary of Housing and Economic Development, said the move is good for the state.

“We have to make sure that people don’t only think Boston and Cambridge are where all the great innovation businesses are,” he said.
