Level 2 – Administrative and Management Services: We have established relationships with professionals having relevant expertise in core areas of administrative and corporate development. Access to these providers is afforded to our client companies. Services include legal, accounting, intellectual property legal, recruitment, risk management and human resource administration. Additional personnel resources are provided through relationships that we have established with area colleges and universities to provide interns in several areas of expertise. While client companies are responsible for costs associated with these services, the services are offered at less than market rates and are individually negotiated with each client company.

- Daily advice and sounding board.
In addition to these services, Emerging Growth Group companies also benefit from the interaction with other of our affiliate companies. Efforts are made to promote both formal and informal contact among the companies, service providers, other technology companies and the community at large.
