so its a recruitment service?bizguy wrote:So this is a program associated through UWF?
UWF is an affiliate member. IC is a 501(c)3 non-profit founded by private companies such as App River, Avalex, and Gulf Power.
I still do not see the "service" relations of innovation coast. I almost feel as if I am reading a college students thesis.
Not sure what you mean. Their mission is to increase the number of tech and knowledge sector companies in the area. Increase investments in those areas. And recruit talent for member companies.
You have to have either a service or a product. That's what I meant.
I seen the mission statement. Mission statements are useless without concrete plans. how are they reaching out to change the perspective as you said? Are they advertising? etc etc etc net working?
I see they got some sponsors/ie members. Now Ive seen companies use that type of tool and would put anyone that gave them a dollar for whatever on there, or who used their service. sometimes companies like that, free advertisement sometimes not.
What is provided to organizations who are members? recruiting service?
Im just trying to figure out what the value of this IC is?
Oh, and I don't want you to take this the wrong way. But really if you know this group of people, they need to go fix those grammar issues. Reminds me of when I get reports back from our Russian pathologist, sometimes she writes like she speaks, broken language. I do it too but you cant have it on a site such as this, especially a tech site. Im just trying to help.
I really do wish you the best. or whoever is trying to do this there. I always hated that pcola doesn't have enough jobs for our younger gens.
To be honest though. I really do not see pcola becoming the next silicon vally. The types of people you need to attract require high maintenance life styles, they are go getters, busy, need stimulus and high pay. I could be wrong, however I doubt it.
pcola should have become a port city, like jville or mobile. that actually would have worked.
