Total System Services
When Total System Services (TSYS) needed 1,500 programmers to expand its transaction
processing business, Georgia created the Intellectual Capital Partnership Program
(ICAPP), directing the full spectrum of resources from the state's university
system to meet that need.
BresaGen
When BresaGen located its U.S. headquarters in Georgia, the Georgia Research
Alliance (GRA) partnership of Georgia's research universities, businesses and
state government was a major factor. BresaGen came to Athens, Georgia after acquiring
Cytogenesis, a company founded by GRA Eminent Scholar (and University of Georgia
professor) Steven Stice.
NCR
When NCR looked for innovative ways to become more competitive in the global
software engineering market, ICAPP brokered a partnership between the company
and two universities in rural Georgia that provide NCR with a cost-effective
way to update its software for retail markets. |
