Innovision Technology Awards - November 9 - Register ASAP

The 2005 InnoVision Technology Awards Dinner will be held this Wednesday, November 9, 2005, at the Palmetto Expo Center in Greenville, SC. There is still time to register by contacting Amy Robichaud, at Deloitte & Touche 864-240-5474 or dmullinax@deloitte.com

Amy and the rest of the InnoVision Advisory Board always do a fabulous job. The InnoVision Awards is always one of the most interesting and enjoyable evenings of the year.

I have two personal favorites among the finalists. InnoVenture is a finalist in the Community Service Award category. TiBA Solutions is a finalist in the Technology Application Award for their development of the SC Business One Stop. Keep your fingers crossed.

The best and brightest of the finalists though is a group of students from the Southside High School Robotics Team, for inventing a stair climbing robot which could carry firefighting gear up stairs and injured people down. It is so good they are going to commercialize it. These students are awesome and inspiring. There's hope for America as long as there are kids like these.
