In NEO today, we see a growing consciousness in the alternative energy and sustainability movement, a resounding catalyst in the digital cities OneCleveland phenomenum, and many other indicators that we are finally developing a vibrant new economy mentality.

This roundtable will focus on how to increase the momentum of our new economy development. We'll explore next steps to expand Gen-X and Y appeal and leverage the work of Rebecca Ryan, who joined the 08.30.05 Roundtable and presents again at the City Club on 09.22.05. We'll discuss optimizing entrepreneurship, including incubators and the Community Development Venture Capital Fund, and discuss a real world demonstration of the need. We'll talk about the disruptive processes and technologies that drive this transformation process and are transformational. Please join us.

We're nurturing face to face visioning and so have revived a storied tradition of roundtable lunches at the City Club, each Tuesday between 11:30 AM - 1:30 PM, where non-hierarchical area innovation champions are breaking bread and brainstorming. The NEO Excellence Roundtable format is casual and conversational - to join us for lunch, please contact coordinator Norm Roulet at norm [at] realinks [dot] us. Each attendee is expected to pay for your own buffet lunch, which is $13 and always excellent - if that is a barrier to you attending, please join us regardless and we'll cover the difference.

In the interest of supporting this open collaboration, we've also established a virtual Community Of Interest Link (COIL) called NEO Excellence - please visit at http://neoexcellence.realinks.us. To participate in the community, please "create an account" using the link found at the home page.
