       </item><item><title>What services does Global Technologies provide?</title><link>http://globaltc.com/public/item/205013</link><description>&lt;p&gt;We've really become experts at building Google Custom Search Engines (CSE's), Google Gadgets, and Ning social networks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At a broad level, we also provide integration services, XML applications, and other types of Web 2.0 systems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Architectural Design, Visionary and CTO&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For a small business or startup organization, keeping a Chief Technology Officer on the payroll can be expensive. However, the vision and guidance provided by a CTO or other technology leader may be a key success factor for your business. For a fraction of the cost, Global Technologies can provide CTO and Architectural Services on a limited but affordable basis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Consulting Services&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;As e-business dramatically increases the amount of information within and across businesses, it is a strategic imperative to leverage the information to fuel innovation, responsiveness and efficiency. It is also critical that enterprises learn how to provide greater relevance in the delivery and sharing of information with and between knowledge workers. Global Technologies provide consultative and implementation services around four primary areas:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;Dynamic Workplace Applications &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;Portal Development and Integration &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;Advanced Information Discovery for Knowledge Workers &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;XML Web Services&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Product Research &amp;amp; Development&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;Simply stated, we innovate. We build software products and concepts that empower users by providing them access to technologies and processes that are generally considered out of reach. Perhaps you have an idea or concept that could provide specific productivity increases to users in your trade or industry. Global Technologies can provide product design and development services using a vast array of expertise and knowledge in this field. Under some circumstances, we may invest or assist start up companies or existing firms by providing product innovation services.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Strategic Innovation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;Established companies have struggled with innovation. The cause is not a lack of resources or commitment. Rather, it is because the requirements for successful innovation strategies often are at cross-purposes with the core business agenda.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" size="2"&gt;One approach has been to get out of the innovation business entirely--via acquisitions or strategic investments. Another approach has been to create &amp;quot;separate&amp;quot; innovation teams within the existing structure with the idea that you can manage two organizations in one. One of them focused on tactical business objectives; the other on the future of the business.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><guid isPermaLink="true">http://globaltc.com/public/item/205013</guid><pubDate>Mon, 26 May 2008 14:10:18 -0400</pubDate>
