Frequently Asked Questions
CIC specializes in hosting professional and community-building events such as company meetings, lectures, presentations, team offsites, networking events, and receptions. At this time, we do not host personal events such as birthday parties, weddings, graduations, etc. If you’re unsure whether your event would be a good fit at CIC, feel free to reach out, and we’d be happy to discuss your needs!
We recommend utilizing public transit or ride-share service to reach Kendall Square where our One Broadway and 245 Main St buildings are located. The closest public transit station is Kendall on the Red Line. There is a parking garage in our One Broadway building, which can be accessed via Third Street. A map of all recommended parking garages can be found here.
As part of the event planning process, please ensure that you submit a complete guest list at least 48 hours before your event. When your guests arrive at CIC, they will be required to check in at either the CIC concierge desk during business hours or the security desk before/after hours. All guests must present a valid government-issued ID for verification upon arrival. Additionally, please refer to your Banquet Event Order (BEO) for the correct building, floor, and access door information, and share these details with your attendees ahead of time to ensure a smooth check-in process.
While each of our event spaces are unique in terms of AV equipment and capabilities, basic AV is included in the cost of room rentals. Each space comes with an HDMI cord and USB C adapter to connect to the TV screens. Your event coordinator will be happy to discuss individualized AV needs for your event.
CIC has an exclusive catering contract with MAX Ultimate Food in which any and all catering orders must be placed through MAX Ultimate Food. If you’re planning to offer catering at your event, your event coordinator will assist by connecting you with the event producer at MAX Ultimate Food. They offer a variety of services, including full-service catering, drop-off options, and bartending.
If you prefer to work with a different caterer, you are welcome to coordinate directly with the company of your choice. However, please note that a $300 fee will apply for using an external catering service.

If the event host cancels within 30 days of the event date for reasons unrelated to CIC, you will be responsible for 50% of the total cost.

Absolutely! One complimentary site visit is included as part of the event coordination process, subject to availability.

Included in the room rental cost is a dedicated event coordinator who will walk you through the entire planning process, basic AV capabilities (access to an HDMI and adapter to connect to presentation screens), free onsite wifi, tables and chairs for flexible room setups, and more.
