Thought about our location

[Deborah W Cohen]

Just an observation.:

I realize ETC may have somewhat different audience but it could be useful to undetstsnd reasons they've located to N. Haven.  They are somehow leveraging their location.  (I am guessing successfully.)  We should take slook at reasons the location works for them in tech that could also work for us.

I met with ETC director Deb Tillett just before her team decided to move from Canton. The much lower rent was their primary motivating factor. They also saw the presence of BUGSS as a sign that the area could support innovation and entrepreneurs. That said, she wanted to support develop around the King Cork & Seal Building. Some ideas we discussed were approaching the city to expand public transportation options and talking to folks interested in starting supporting businesses (e.g. coffee shops, restaurants, etc.) nearby. I am not sure what action they ever took. It may be worth talking to the ETC again to see how we can collaborate to make the best of our location.

Dileep,

That’s some good info…Don’t know if you know but Monument Brewing Company opened up in the next block.  Perhaps that will become a draw …..we need to find ways to make ourselves more visible to traffic in that area.  And yes it would be good to find out more about public transportation possibilities.

Thanks,

Deb
