The SBS Mission Plan is to develop a global network of certified technology-based consulting professionals with individual expertise in a wide variety of technology-based industries including Telecommunications, IT/Infrastructure, Internet/E-commerce, Computer, and Consumer Electronics.
• SBS Technology Industry Overview - Most technology-based Startups as well as FORTUNE 1000 organizations today focus on the engineering and technical development of new market based technologies. Unfortunately, most of these organizations lack the required multi-disciplined sales, marketing, distribution channel, PR and business development expertise to cost effectively introduce these hi-tech products and services to market in a rapid and cost effective fashion.
• The SBS “UVA”, or Unique Value Add - Most organizations see significant value added savings and reduced new market entrance costs via the qualified Outsourcing of previously unconsidered core management functions including Sales, Marketing, Finance, Operations and Business Development. Utilizing certified industry experts, SBS offers project management teams who assist with the cost effective and rapid market introduction of many specialized hi-tech products and services.
• 1997: Establishment of the SBS Advisory Council. The Council is comprised of accomplished industry executives and academicians whose primary charter is the ongoing Review, Reporting, and Recommendation of new and converging technologies for the SBS client base.
