Genesi USA opening up shop in North Las Vegas

One thing the new location will be used for is for Reseller training - technical and otherwise (marketing, entrepreneurship, etc). Summit meetings which allow policies, promotional and educational programs, and the design and improvement of documentation are also part of the picture.

Another aspect BBRV and I are talking about is called Meet The Partners. When there is a gathering we want any local partners of resellers to be there, and partners in Genesi ventures like IBM. We want people to be able to meet, see the possibilities, learn from each others' strategies, and find new working relationships.

We also want to get a lot of developers together with core people and work on technical educational fronts. It's an opportunity to get developers together and define ways to work on more ambitious, large scale projects. Though MorphOS is the centerpiece of OS focus, all the other OSes will be important to many developers too, and to resellers especially.

Then there is the trade show advantage: Las Vegas has one of the largest convention centers in the US, and home of CES and COMDEX among others. This location will provide the ability to host many productive events over coming years and serve as a nexus just before, during, and after those shows.  

It is likely that whenever the location has a more imortant event going on that net conferencing, visual, audio, IRC - the whole shooting match of live coverage (and related materials will be 'cast from the Genesi USA site/location.

Stay tuned, we are going to make this office work for us and those who are hitched up with us! : } ...And at this time I'd like to hear YOUR ideas {I already know about the showgirls and the Chippendale Nerdz With Muscles fantasies ; }

PS to T_Bone:

Please DO NOT have pizza delivered there until after we have announced our Grand Opening! At that point I think something with charcoal-grilled lamb, feta cheese and prime sun-dried tomatoes would be most appropriate ;  }

I know! There are many ways to Be Pizza, and tonight I will experience yet another! Mmmm-hmmm! : }

...Perhaps our first "live-feed" net & local event will have to have catering for the developers/resellers and staff who are there. I'm getting real excited - and real hungry - just thinking about what this could mean to us.

Of course there is a lot of work ahead to make sure we find wise uses of the resources we have been blessed with. I hope we can rise to the occasion, and give others reason to believe in us, and themselves.

Cheyenne Technology Corridor  - as described in the PR, and its links. Lots of development of this type going on in the Las Vegas region now. I'm not all that interested in gambling towns, but Las Vegas really is beginning to diversify - it's pretty amazing what the desert is becoming!

All the mentioned states had some good incentives and local benefits. But I have to say I was pulling for Las Vegas, after seeing what was happening in the region!

I too enjoyed the surrounding desert and mountains : }

Elvis had his best days BEFORE Vegas. For us, we think it will be the opposite : }
