Schipul and client HTC featured in article on Houston tech community
Schipul and client Houston Technology Center were featured in an Opportunity Houston magazine article entitled 'Hot Spot: Information technology flourishes in Houston' (view a PDF version of the article here). From the article:
The article also touches on Mayor Bill White's WeCAN Intitiative and featured Houston-grown tech organizations recognized by the Rice Alliance including:"Houston is really becoming a pillar of the Internet scene," says Marc Nathan, who came to HTC first as an investor, then accepted a position as the center's director of Entrepreneur Development with a concentration on IT. "I say the Internet specifically because that's a subset of all the IT sector, of course. We're getting a tremendous amount of interest from outside the region - specifically from the West Coast and the East Coast. They're really looking at Houston for emerging leaders."
