The March 27 membership meeting featured a presentation by Kirk Riley, Executive Director of ITEC Lansing--an extraordinary new partnership between the City of Lansing, Michigan State University, the Prima Civitas Foundation and several of our region's leading technology companies.  The ITEC Lansing project will have a profound impact on the technological literacy of Lansing youth and their families and enhance our ability to create the workforce of the future.  Kirk discussed how the former Holmes Street school is being transformed into a technology resource for the community and how the local IT industry will be able to leverage the technology and programs that will be housed in the center.
