CED today released
its long-anticipated TriangulateNC.com,
an interactive site that represents the entrepreneurial activity in the
Research Triangle. It’s focused initially on technology and life science
companies, with expansion opportunities for industries such as advanced
materials sciences and the ‘makers’ movement – some of the most active growth
areas for our region.
Site for
Entrepreneurs – and those who support them
We’re hoping that you will help us continue to expand on
this map. We’re looking for companies with headquarters (or major operations)
in Wake, Durham or Orange Counties, companies that were founded in this region,
and are privately held (or have done an IPO or become a wholly owned subsidiary
of a larger company but retained brand identity). We’d like to you sign on,
expand the information we have on your company (or add it!), and continue to
provide the site with milestone information.
Central Events
Calendar
We also built this tool, with great help from our friends at
Relevance, to be the central go-to calendar for
community events that would be of interest to entrepreneurs. Many of our
community partners have already added their upcoming happenings – we invite you
to add yours as well, and to come back often to see ‘what’s up’ in the region.
It’s Yours.
This site belongs to entrepreneurs in the Triangle. You are
encouraged to input and refresh your company information regularly, to keep the
region – and ultimately the world – up-to-date on what your company is doing.
Thus far, CED has created the database and architecture for the map, calendar
and news flow. CED will continue to curate the information and manage the site
to assure high quality standards, supported by our 75+ community partners who
share an interest in a vibrant entrepreneurial community.
Help Make it Easy to
Understand Entrepreneurship in the Triangle
The Research Triangle is among the country’s top
entrepreneurial centers. Yet, getting the information that helps to tell that
story has not been easy. TriangulateNC.com is designed to be a central information
hub -- the single stop for information on what’s happening entrepreneurially in
the Research Triangle area. Help us help the world find out how great this area
is. We’ve started the process, but to make it great requires YOU.
Give us feedback (there’s an orange tab on the right side of
the homepage) or contact Hal Thomas for
comment.
