Sponsored Content Introducing FINTECH SOUTHEAST, fintechsoutheast.com, stage one of a virtual cyber e-Colony region for the states of Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee that begins as an advanced knowledge, news and informational web content distribution platform. Ultimately continuing to escalate functions and deliverables to a global standard, the fintech southeast community’s dynamic virtual online labs and interconnected live collaborative environments will evolve soon along with co-creation implementation and online Cybermall e-showcasing corporate technology and beyond. Why focus on the region to stimulate global competitiveness? Upon attending the Southeast FinTech Venture Conference in Charlotte, NC in 2017, Richard Maclean, Partner at Frontier Capital, was asked by MEDICI (formerly Let’s Talk Payments): It seems a lot of regional and super regional collaboration is going on around the country. What are your thoughts on why this is happening? Maclean said: “The world, especially in technology, is moving at a much faster pace. As businesses become more competitive, they also seem to become more collaborative and evolve quickly. Many of our CEOs talk to the CEOs of their competition on a frequent basis to keep lines of communication open. I think you are also seeing a lot more collaboration with organizations outside of the “major technology centers” like Silicon Valley, NYC, and Boston,” Maclean continued. Many of these “flyover” markets for technology companies are sharing resources and best practices to try and support technology companies in their markets because these companies are such major drivers of growth and job opportunities.” Transformation and innovation will soon reach an inflection point powerfully reinforcing one another to seek uniquely competitive advantage, identify immediate opportunities, research, explore, think and invent together, share contacts and leverage proven strategies to compete in the global economy. We can do this. Inevitable challenges and massive opportunity fuel the innovation drive to disruption. Introducing a plan to commercialize government ecosystem resources while at the same time showcase tech apps and one-of-a-kind technology capabilities is a game changer enriching user experience as never seen before.
