Almost a year ago Shuprotim Bhaumik and the team from HR&A Advisors produced a comprehensive report on the New York City Tech Ecosystem and how it is generating economic opportunities for many New Yorkers (http://www.hraadvisors.com/nyctechstudy/). Last week Gail Mellow, President of LaGuardia Community College, had a number of the college faculty and staff attend another important meeting with the same team from HR&A.
Shuprotim and his team gave a presentation that went a step further than the original report and provided LaGuardia with a road map on how the college can better prepare students for employment in NYC growing Tech arena. On a personal note, I felt pleased that much of the information that was detailed in the reports backed up the research that I conducted when I prepared the Periodic Program Review (PPR) of the New Media Technology major.
