How about some Good News!
As evident in this newsletter we have a lot going on.  I would like to take a moment to share with you some other highlights that have taken place with your Technology Council.
  • Alicia Durham, who most of you know, has accepted the position of Assistant Executive Director for the Council.  Alicia’s experience with the Council and our members along with her willingness to serve is a huge win for all of us.
  • Thanks to the generosity of the Council’s Treasurer, Steve Piascik, the Council has moved our office to Innsbrook.  We are now located in the offices of Piascik and Associates. 
  • We have begun to execute our strategic plan.  Many thanks to Steve Kimball with Tuscan Advisors who for the better part of last year helped craft the direction for the Council.  A few highlights of the plan include:
    • A Mission: To serve as a catalyst to stimulate and connect innovative, creative and technical people
    • A new name and logo
    • A new website
    • A simplified revenue model

We have continued to collaborate with our partners in the community to bring more timely events to all.

We have a busy few months ahead of us.  None of this would be possible without your continued support and we look forward to working with you this year.  We welcome your ideas, participation, energy and enthusiasm. 

Regards,
Chip
