FiReStarter 2009
Friday Harbor, Washington
Written by: Brier Dudley
October 15, 2009
What is the FiReStarters program?

For the third year in a row, Strategic News Service (SNS) is selecting 12 businesses - top startups or businesses with new startup technology - for world promotion, based on nominations by trusted strategic investment SNS Members. We believe that these FiReStarter businesses, which are integrated into the FiRe program, are on the cusp of making great strides in improving our world. They are businesses we believe you should know about.

How does the process work?

SNS Members have access to and knowledge of key world-changing new businesses, or businesses with new technologies, that deserve recognition. We therefore invite a select number of SNS Member investment firms to nominate businesses they know that fit into this high-caliber category. From these nominations, we perform reviews and select 12 finalists to feature at the FiRe conference. These are businesses we hope to follow for a very long time.

In addition to promoting these businesses before, during, and after FiRe, we follow up with each FiReStarter to learn how and in what ways their business has changed as a result of their participation at FiRe.

If you would like your company to be considered as a FiReStarter nominee in 2009, or if you have any questions, please contact Sharon Anderson-Morris, Director of SNS Programs, at sam@stratnews.com
