Flexware Innovation to Present at Upcoming Slingshot Event
Fishers, IN – January 30, 2009 – Flexware Innovation, a leading systems integrator for manufacturers, announced today their selection to participate in the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce’s Slingshot event on Friday, February 6th, 2009. Slingshot is an event designed to provide emerging businesses the opportunity to showcase their company to local business leaders. The goal is to increase value and visibility, giving companies the ability to develop important relationships with regional businesses.
Since September 2007, nearly 20 companies have participated in Slingshot events. In creating a forum for companies to share their stories and ideas, the Greater Indianapolis Chamber has facilitated meaningful interactions among businesses that increase the odds for a long-term relationship. “Since implementing this event, we have seen well over 60% of our presenters establish qualified business leads from multiple businesses in attendance,” stated Jillian McHenry, Manager, Corporate Partnerships, Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. “We’ve gotten excellent feedback and established a venue for emerging businesses to enhance their regional network.”
“This is a great opportunity for us to share our story with businesses with whom we wouldn’t usually speak,” explained Flexware Innovation President Scott Whitlock. “Our products and services aren’t intended to be off-the-shelf, and the ability to reach a new audience gives us the chance to connect with companies who are looking for what we offer, but have no idea we are right in their own backyard.”
The event will take place at Rolls-Royce in downtown Indianapolis on Friday, February 6th from 11:30 am to 1:00 pm. Attendance is limited to companies who have been invited by the Greater Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce.
