Group 8

Progress: We have met with two companies that are involved with Austin Technology Incubators. One is called ActaCell, which deals with improving lithium battery life for batter-operated vehicles. We have interview on America for a video, we took pictures for a slide show, and got quotes for a written article. We did the same with another company called Q-cue that uses original algorithms software to create the “perfect ticket price.”

            We will be attending a conference on Wednesday put on by Austin Technology Incubators where they be putting on a product demonstration.  Then on Thursday we will do an interview with Austin Technology Incubator management to flesh out the rest of our story.
