I've been alerted by Ponzi Corleone that Adam Reuters will be interviewing Ginko Financial and others for a piece about the economy of SL.
I'd like to setup Tuesday night (SLT) meetings at mutually convenient times to hammer out our thoughts for commercial expansion. This is also an opportunity to discuss ideas, partnerships, meet the competition etc. I'd like to have these at the Biergarten if that's ok. These are very informal. From a political standpoint, I do represent some of the business interests below as a DPU rep and so I'd like to hear about what the RA can do to make CDS a better business environment.
We have a number of citizens and potential citizens interested in commerce and various financial service industries:
Pelanor Eldrich: Eldrich Financial, mortgages, loans and escrow. Interested in the bond market and banking.
Lee Dimsum: New owner of GOM, currency exchange etc.
Midas Commons: Manus Financial, underwriting and gaming (?)
Zeus Zeitkin: SLJobFinder (a staffing agency)
FlyingRoc Chung: Has a 50% stake in a large casino (outside CDS)
Mikael Lunardi: Interested in bond market, a Commercial Dept. of the CDS and various interesting financial initiatives.
Ashcroft Burnham: Contractual enforcement (judiciary) and SL Chamber of Commerce.
Adam Hawthorne: Scripting and Development.
Ponzi Corleone: Full sim mortgages and banking.
calmTommy Lowell: Live music vending machines and clubs (outside CDS)
Sudane Erato: Buildings etc.
Gwyneth Llewelyn: Gwyn's Useless Things (tchotskys?)
Dianne Mechanique: Textures, rugs and furniture
Rubiyat Shatner: Trotsky's and Ars Virtua (outside CDS)
We also have a variety of traditional texture, building and scripting vendors with shops as well as establishments the Biergarten and the Cafe.
Forgive me if I've left anyone out or misreprsented anyone's business interests. It's a bit of a moving target at times. Thanks.
