Rick Duke / UWF Center for Entrepreneurship

Founding Director

WEBSITE

In July 2015, UWF announced the formation of the Center for Entrepreneurship through a $1 million gift commitment from Quint and Rishy Studer. Thanks to the Studers’ generosity, the Center will encourage and support educational initiatives related to entrepreneurship and entrepreneurial thinking while serving as a comprehensive resource for economic innovation for students, industry and community partners.

Duke’s experience in entrepreneurship and economic development includes 25 years at the Georgia Institute of Technology, where he worked from 1984 to 2009. He served in a variety of roles in economic development at Georgia Tech, culminating as General Manager for Business Development at the Enterprise Innovation Institute. He also spent four years as Director of the Economic Development Institute, which was named the “best university-based economic development organization in the country” by Innovation Associates in 2005.

Duke then transitioned to the University of Southern Mississippi where he was hired in 2010 to lead the startup of the Trent Lott National Center for Excellence in Economic Development and Entrepreneurship, a university-based community engagement enterprise. His most recent position was Director for Economic Development and Executive Director for Insight Park at the University of Mississippi. In that role, Duke established a framework for the technology incubator and research park marketing plan and engaged the university community to identify knowledge assets suited for both economic development and university-industry partnerships.

AppRiver has a simple mission – to be Phenomenal.

So what does being phenomenal mean for you? It means you can try out any of our services at no charge for 30 days and make sure they’re right for your business. It means you can cancel your service at any time without penalties. And it means you will deal with a well-trained, experienced team of AppRiver employees – available all day, every day – from your first call and every call thereafter. All of that means you’ll have fewer issues and that the ones you do have will be resolved quickly and accurately. Our job is simply to make your business better.

But just because it’s simple doesn’t mean it’s easy. We’ve worked hard to earn the trust of over 47,000 customers worldwide – and keep 93 percent of all our customers since we launched the business. We’re still working hard to provide the best customer service in the business because keeping our customers happy today (and tomorrow) is all that matters!

Young Entrepreneurs Academy

Middle and high-school students in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties have the unique opportunity to start and launch their own REAL businesses or social movements by participating in the Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!), a program co-sponsored by the Greater Pensacola Chamber and Global Business Solutions, Inc. Applications for the 2015-2016 academic school year are now open. Apply Here.

YEA! Pensacola – Young Entrepreneurs Academy 2015

The Young Entrepreneurs Academy (YEA!) is a ground-breaking program that takes students through the process of starting and running real businesses over the course of a full academic year.

YEA! students, as a class, visit area businesses, meet successful entrepreneurs, meet with professionals (attorneys, accountants, bankers, graphic designers, web developers, insurance providers, etc.), develop a business or social movement idea and plan, and work with mentors.

Students then pitch their ideas to a panel of investors made up of local business and community leaders with real dollars at stake to obtain funding, and then launch their venture. By the end of the class, students own and operate fully functioning businesses.

Amplifying The Voice Of Young Entrepreneurs

#pensacola #youngentrepreneurs #radio #businessradio

WHY

We believe Young Entrepreneurs are the future of our economy. Pensacola Business Radio is absolutely committed to supporting these future leaders — and with just a little help from you, we can provide them with the same robust, full-scale “in-studio” Radio Show platform we make available to our Corporate clients, sponsors, and underwriters.

The Business RadioX ® Network has agreed to match Dollar for Dollar all funds raised from this campaign, provided . . .

We apply all funds to supporting Young Entrepreneurs in our community
We raise a minimum of $2,500 from our own community

What We Need & Want

What we WANT is $20,000 — which will fund Young Entrepreneur Radio for a full year. To pull that off, we need to raise $10,000 (BRX Corporate will match that dollar for dollar to meet our $20k objective).

What we NEED is at least $2,500 so we qualify for the matching funds.

If we raise less than $2,500 . . . Every penny will still go to providing some version of Young Entrepreneur Radio. It just means a much more modest program — like a monthly series vs. weekly show, and less budget for Remote Broadcasts, Radio Camp, Awards, and Scholarships.

Women In Technology – Guests: Jo Lynn Barnicoat / Clever Ogre, Lindsay Ryman / Greater Pensacola Chamber & Innovation Coast

As top-level leaders, the women (who will be part of this show) may not seem like the most representative sample – but we should view them as symbolic, and as part of the vanguard. For each one of them, there are legions of women in less-prominent and lower-level roles and organizations who are forging careers as women in technology. And most of them are doing so without degrees in computer science, without being coders, and without creating or working for tech start-ups. That’s not to say there isn’t still disparity in technology-related fields, roles and firms – or the need to do more to create opportunities for women, as well as better gender balance and equity – but the pursuit of those goals may be better served by a broader point of view.–September 30, 2014 Courtney Hunt

Jenny Clark / Slovability

CEO

Jenny W Clark is founder and CEO of Solvability, Inc., a training organization dedicated to small businesses in the federal contracting industry. Through webinars, podcasts, live “boot camps” and conferences, Jenny help small business learn the accounting side of federal contracting and shows them strategies to be more competitive and improve their cash flow.

Growing up in a Navy family, Jenny considers herself lucky to have grown up in the Pensacola area. She is a Gulf Breeze High School graduate and returns to the Panhandle frequently to visit family. Jenny has a BA in Economics and also a Masters in International Business Studies. She’s worked in the aerospace and defense industry for over 30 years, specializing in accounting systems.

Jenny has stayed connected with the iTen area business community and sees lots of potential for growth in Florida, especially in IT, aviation, and unmanned vehicles. She is also an advocate for veterans, especially for veterans who are transitioning from military to civilian careers.

Jenny currently lives and works in the Tampa Bay area. She can be reached through her website at www.solvability.com or via e-mail at jwclark@solvability.com or through Linked in.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/solvabilityjwc

Founded in 1997, Solvability works exclusively with small businesses performing as either a prime contractor or subcontractor on federal contracts, focusing on DCAA Compliant accounting systems.

Growing companies need information about which systems to use, the costs of the software, implementation, training and maintenance. Understanding your business structure, your plans for the future, the types of contracts and even agencies you are going after, and your reporting requirements are key to selecting the right financial accounting and reporting systems.

So where do you go for help? The local PTAC can only really provide information about start-ups. Your partners and competitors will only share some of their knowledge and strategy. Large prime contractors don’t understand (and don’t care) that implementing an ERP system is expensive and time consuming, plus it takes more experienced accounting teams to run, and that your priority is passing a DCAA audit (since most small businesses are CAS-exempt.)

Before you can put in the right systems – you need the right people! Finance and Accounting professionals who understand accounting, cost accounting and government contracting requirements, who become part of your key personnel and keep your books straight, but also know about indirect rate strategies, multipliers, billing, bidding, unallowables, unbilled and how to pass a DCAA Audit.

That is where Solvability comes in – your resource for selecting and integrating the systems you need, while providing training for accounting, cost accounting and government contracting for you and your team.

Danny Mortimer and Joel Freeman / Card Payment Solutions, LLC

Danny Mortimer is an honest to goodness bona fide Panhandle local; born at the NAS Hospital and raised right here in Pensacola. He has over 35 years’ experience coast-to-coast in outside sales, sales management, and business ownership.

In 1981 he was recruited into the life insurance industry and soon added to his portfolio a number of securities licenses with the SEC as well as certified financial advisor. He grew his financial practice to well over 100 agents before transitioning into the wireless communication industry from 1998 – 2003 where as a broker he focused primarily on wireless solutions for businesses.

From 2003 – 2007 he was quite successful in the trade show industry. As part owner of a company manufacturing portable modular tradeshow equipment and producing high resolution digital graphics, Danny set up distribution networks throughout the world but primarily in North America. He grew this company well over 300% in just 3 years by developing solid reseller relationships with several of the largest franchise companies in the world such as Sign-A-Rama, FastSigns, Signs Now, and Allegra just to name a few.

In 2008 he came full circle back to the financial industry, this time in the bank card segment as a merchant processing broker. His financial and sales management experience uniquely qualified him to help build a successful team for Card Payment Solutions along with his own residual portfolio of merchant clientele here locally and throughout the Southeast.

Danny was blessed to marry his Woodham High School sweetheart, Angela Bills. They currently call the Greenville area of South Carolina their home but can’t seem to stay away from the Panhandle. A growing clientele and agent base here along with their family, kids, and grandchild keep them coming back at least every other month or so.

Card Payment Solutions is a leading provider of credit card processing, merchant accounts, and shopping carts for small and medium sized merchants located across the United States. Our payment processing services enable merchants to process both traditional card-present, or “swipe” transactions, as well as “card-not-present” transactions. Our management’s experience and cumulative knowledge in providing payment processing services to merchants give us the ability to effectively identify, evaluate and manage the payment processing needs and risks that are unique to small business.
