The Enterprise Development Corporation of South Florida, a non-profit organisation specialising in providing business development services to emerging science and technology companies, has revealed that jobsite123.com is among the 14 finalists to do a three-minute on-stage presentation at the 13th Annual Emerging Technology Business Showcase.
ETBS is South Florida’s annual event for science and technology startups where the investment community convenes to preview South Florida’s most promising young companies in the region.
Participants include first and second stage entrepreneurs, business leaders, educators, investors and service providers.
This year’s theme is “Growing Our Entrepreneurial Ecosystem”, and it is EDC’s first time partnering with the Florida Economic Gardening Institute, a non-profit organisation that provides technical assistance for second stage growth companies.
“Each year we look forward to hearing from companies that are representing technologies and solutions with the potential to change the global economy,” says Jane Teague, EDC executive director. “From alternative energy to discovering new forms of transportation and aerospace, ETBS is a great opportunity to learn and network.”
“jobsite123’s launch could not have come at a better time. While the commercial construction industry continues to suffer from a severe downturn, jobsite123 has introduced a solution that helps firms lower costs and find work more quickly,” says Gonzalo Marquez, managing partner at Falcon Opportunity Partners.
