 Economic Vitality in Local Economies

SRI & IMC Corp. develop PROACTIVE
Tools to build public/private partnerships

A local economy functions much like a "living organism".  It does NOT remain dormant... it grows stronger or it atrophies.  Accordingly, developing and sustaining a healthy economy requires proactive strategies.

SRI, along with its sister firm Integrated Marketing Communications Corporation (IMC Corp), has the experience and expertise required to help government & quasi-government agencies design and administer such proactive strategies.  Some notable examples include:

• The City of Sunnyvale, located in the hub of Silicon Valley, where we helped create an Economic Development model to enhance the economic vitality of the City for the foreseeable future.

• The Oakland CEO Council, comprised of such firms and organizations as Clorox, Dryers Ice Cream, Kaiser Permanente, the Oakland Port Authority, and others, where we helped them address issues designed to enhance the economic vitality of the local and regional economies.

• Conducted FTTH/FTTB feasibility studies in more than 20 cities in Utah, Wyoming, and California to determine whether or not FIBEROPTICS (including "The Last Mile") could be employed as a mechanism for bolstering the local economy (attract new business, create new jobs, et al).

• Assisted ChevronTexaco in developing a COMMUNITY BENEFITS PROGRAM for residents along the coastal region of Baja, California, Mexico, as an extension of an effort to become involved in LNG regasification in Mexico.

• Assist Native American Tribes (e.g., see Client list) in developing programs that benefit all Tribal members; e.g., health care, education, job training, new jobs, attract new commercial enterprise onto the reservation, and other programs that will benefit the respective Tribe.
