Just how far the Youngstown Business Incubator has come as a center of
excellence for software development really struck home for me late last week
during a three-way video conference.
Joining with us in Youngstown, Ohio were YBI portfolio companies Zethus
Software, M-7 Technologies and our research partner Youngstown State University.
Also joining us from Columbus, Ohio and Gaithersburgh, Maryland respectively
were scientists from the Ohio Supercomputer Center and the National Institute of
Standards and Technology.
Our goal? To define each partner's responsibility for developing the next
generation of laser-based 3D imaging software for advanced manufacturing under
our contract with the U.S. Department of Defense.
You know, there was a time a few years ago that we would have been happy to get
just one software company successfully off the ground in Youngstown.
Now I'm kinda thinking total world domination.
Seriously.
