Hey - this is Dave Knox and I'm actually one of the co-founders of The Brandery.
First off, I'm glad you had a chance to stop by our program. Hopefully you saw the fact that we're trying to not just talk about it being great for technology entrepreneurship, but actually deliver against that as well.
Now, in terms of your point on support for business / startups, that is the very reason we started this program in 2010. We are at the beginning part of the journey but there is a real change happening in the town. If you ask any of the companies that have gone through our program, they will tell you that our support of them doesnt end when they graduate from the program. We can't help all of the companies in town, but we're there for the 26 that have gone through The Brandery and are making a real go of it.
Give me a shout (dave@brandery.org) and lets grab coffee. I'll share whats made me decide to make Cincinnati my home and a place where I really believe in the technology opportunities. We have a long ways to go but we've taken the first steps that I am confident will get us there.
