Thank you, Andy.  We need to collectively send info on any/all  tech projects to the "writer/pundits."  This is so we'll always be mentioned, quoted and possibly spotlighted positively and on the larger stage.  We need also to counteract the negative rankings we've been getting the past six months.  I'll be doing my part.  Anyone else?  Suggestions?

Hey,

Friday the thirteenth is a good a day as any to join in.  @thundermist1 for 'stuff.'

Well said Jack.  You and Saul are doing great work getting the message out.  Let's hope we all can help bouy the RI economy by growing an interest in, and effectively promoting, this 'under the radar' sector.

Hello all,

First, congrats to Jack on the great panel and subsequent discussion on co-working.  Whenever there is a need there is an opportunity.

Full disclosure, I'm only a semi-geek and have a general question for any advice I can get.  This may be more for Brian as he is in an 'other than an urban' area.  Is there a need for home office/co-working people in suburban settings?

The reason I ask is that I serve on the Smithfield Economic Development Commission and we are in the process of setting up 'fast tracking' for businesses and companies.  We need to constantly present ideas and opportunities for small to mid-size companies looking to relocate.  The larger companies are never a problem as they attract incentives by their nature.

Maybe Brian, Jack or anyone else would like to attend one of our meetings to reinforce how this may dovetail with our proposed Smithfield 'Villages Project'.  Please contact me and I'll arrange for some time on the agenda.

Again, great meeting, thanks,

J. Jack Andrade
