Congratulating the Nashua Scrum Club

As we inch closer to Thanksgiving I thought we would give credit where credit is due.  Our friends at the Nashua Scrum Club (if you don’t know of them, check them out at www.nashua.scrumclub.org) have done a great job of getting a brand new networking/education group off the ground at record speed.  As most of you know, Scrum is closely related to Agile Development which is a topic that grows more popular with every passing day.  Although Scrum Club isn’t new, the NH chapter is new and just completed its third monthly meeting.  While many fledgling networking/education groups have a difficult time getting off the ground, Scrum Club has been at standing-room-only capacity for all three meetings and isn’t slowing down. 

 

Congrats to Bob Fischer and Mary St. Germain for a job well done.

 

Happy Developing.

Tips From the Experts - Seeking Funding?

Since I enjoy watching the Life Sciences market to keep up on client trends and for investment purposes, I find myself reading a publication called the Life Science Leader.  The following link will bring you to a blog post by a journalist named Rob Jevon and it discusses the top 10 mistakes made by life sciences companies who are seeking funding.  While this was written for a specific market, many of the points are applicable across multiple industry verticals.  Hopefully you find it to be useful:
