Springfield: Chamberlains earn Hall of Fame honor
Eric and Lisa Chamberlain, owners of The Chamberlain Group in Great Barrington, will be honored tonight by the Western Massachusetts Entrepreneurship Hall of Fame. Established in 2000, the Hall of Fame is located at the Andrew M. Scibelli Enterprise Center at Springfield Technical Community College.
The Chamberlain Group will receive the County Achievement Award for Berkshire County.
Most people have seen the medical models and mechanical special effects created by members of The Chamberlain Group in trailers and films including Superman, Ghostbusters, The Matrix, Starship Troopers, Gandhi, and many more. The Chamberlain Group’s focus now is custom models for medicine, used for training and research by companies and educational institutions such as Abbott Vascular, Boston Scientific and Carnegie Mellon University.
