Martin Madaus, former president, chairman, and chairman of Millipore Corp., is scheduled to be the featured speaker at the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce's Innovation Forum.

The Innovation Forum is scheduled for tomorrow morning at the Omni Parker House Hotel in Boston, the Chamber said

Earlier this year, Merck KGaA agreed to buy Millipore, a Billerica-based supplier of drug development equipment for biotechnology companies, for about $6 billion.

In July, Merck, a German drug and chemical giant, announced that Bernd Reckmann would succeed Madaus as chief executive and that Madaus would continue to work for the company as a consultant until the end of the year.
