  • Welcome Back! News from the Makerspace
    Unsubscribe View in your browser Welcome Back! Friends of TVCOG, Welcome to July at TVCOG and a happy Independence Day to all! As NYS reaches vaccination benchmarks, and state restrictions ease, we find ourselves able to lift some of our safety measures. We are excited to inform you that as of today, July 1, 2021, face masks are no longer required for fully vaccinated individuals while in our facility. We look forward to seeing your smiling faces again! We are also excited to announce that we are increasing our in-person programming options and public events. This month marks the return of drop-in tours for Troy Night Out, and the beginning of class and program preparation for our fall trimester. We look forward to returning to a robust program schedule for both members and non-members alike. -- Cheryl Kennedy, Executive Director News from the Makerspace In the Spotlight... Tower: An Art Installation by Sari Nordman We first featured a brief sneak peek at this art installation in our April newsletter, with a behind the scenes look at Sari making frame prototypes in our welding zone. The finished installation, entitled Tower, is now on display from July 1 to Aug 7 at King Manor Museum, 150-03 Jamaica Avenue, Jamaica, NY. Tower is a multi-media, interdisciplinary piece which utilizes sculpture, media projection and community participation to reflect on climate change. The piece was inspired by the biblical story of The Tower of Babel, a tale of greed and the value of cultural differences. Sari will be discussing the project during a live talk at Hunter’s Point Environmental Center on July 10th at 2pm.

  • David N. Deutsch Is the Principal of His Self -Named Investment Banking Firm in Manhattan
    Interview with David Deutsch MONDAY, 14 AUGUST 2006 David N. Deutsch is the principal of his self -named investment banking firm in Manhattan. Raised in the Capital Region, Mr Deutsch makes a point of returning home each summer as part of his Saratoga Weekend conference retreat with members of his extended business and personal networks. This year’s invitation-only edition is slated for Thursday thru Saturday of this week, complete with panel discussions, networking sessions and social gatherings at the races and polo matches in the Spa City. While spending some time together recently at the Saratoga races, Mr. Deutsch and Tech Valley Times principal Robert Millis discussed a wide variety of subjects in anticipation of the Saratoga Weekend. TVT: Take us back to the beginning -- your local roots. DD: Like you, I went to Saratoga High School – go Blue Streaks! I graduated in the Top 10, along with your cousin Tammy and the soon-to-be famous David Hyde Pierce (note: the actor who played the part of Niles on the Frasier television series) in 1977. TVT: Where’d you go to college? DD: I went to Middlebury College, originally pre-med. I was a physics - turned - economics major. TVT: Then what? DD: Upon graduation, I went to work for Lehman Brothers in institutional sales & trading in NYC at the beginning of the ‘80s bull market. It was exactly like the story in Liar’s Poker --- Michael Lewis was in an identical program at Salomon Brothers at the same time. I began as a corporate bond trader; Lehman’s bond desk was/is legendary.

Whether you stroll down our historic main streets, catch sight of the pleasure craft cruising up the scenic Hudson River, hike across the lush trails of the Kaaterskill Falls, play golf at one of our nine golf courses, or enjoy ski- ing at our world-class ski resorts in Hunter and Windham, you’ll find a new energy and vitality waiting for you in Greene County.

  • The Road to the New Economy: Speed Bumps and Detours Continued from Page 2 PDP and School of Public Health Launch Successful Course Best in the Affected Communities
    The Road to the New Economy: A Newsletter from the Professional Speed Bumps and Detours Development Program, Eugene J. Monaco Rockefeller College Director, Professional Development Program “It is not the strongest of the species that survive, nor the most intelligent, but the ones most responsive to change.” — Charles Darwin To be sure, the U.S. economy experienced a profound transformation over the last decade or so, morphing itself into what has been commonly called the “New Economy.” With its global marketplace, the New Economy promised to transform the nature of work, the workplace itself, the way we learn, and the relationship between learning and work. The mantra of the New Economy was change — with flexibility, speed, risk, and innovation the rules. The impact was ubiquitous, and the mantra repeated so frequently it became clichéd. In retrospect it’s easy to understand how this happened so quickly and perva- sively. Fueled by technology, the beguiling prospects were irresistible to all areas of the old economy. Technology-driven job growth and inflated wages quickly be- came the norm spurring on a drive towards ever-higher real wages, an explo- sion of telecommuting, increased leisure time, and an anticipated competition for the smaller pool of tech-savvy professionals who would be left to handle the massive work load created in the wake of en-masse baby boomer retirements. Enter the Learning Society with knowledge management and human capi- tal as its underpinnings. The fields of continuing professional education and workforce development seemed destined to become an essential part of this new order. Those of us in the field moved confidently into the emerging niche between the old, familiar landscape and the new economic order rising on the horizon.

  • Tech Valley: Lessons from the New York Nano-Cluster Success Story
    Tech Valley: Lessons from the New York Nano-Cluster Success Story New York has overcome numerous obstacles to create a large and growing cluster of nanotechnology-based research, manufacturing, and supply chain enterprises and educational institutions in what has come to be known as “Tech Valley.” In their new book from Georgetown University, “Partnering to Grow the New York Nano-Cluster,” Dr. Charles W. Wessner and Thomas R. Howell describe in detail how Tech Valley was built, the cooperation and investments it required, and its strategic value through the manufacturing of cutting edge semiconductors within the U.S. Today, this is an essential capability if the U.S. is to retain its current competitiveness and national security advantages. Reversing Economic Decline The Capital Region of New York State has been transformed by sustained, bipartisan efforts to develop and grow in what is now called Tech Valley. Tech Valley is a corridor running along the Middle Hudson Valley from East Fishkill through Albany, Schenectady, and Troy to Saratoga Springs. Decades-long investments in university nanotechnology programs, public- private partnerships, and collaborative efforts to attract high- tech manufacturing have succeeded beyond expectations. The sustained investments in education, innovative partnerships and infrastructure have enabled the region to attract and retain cutting edge semiconductor manufacturing. There are now almost 10,000 semiconductor manufacturing jobs in Tech Valley, with average pay of $92,000 a year, plus thousands of indirect jobs generated in the GlobalFoundries supply chain. These high-paying jobs have helped create tens of thousands of other onshore manufacturing and to create viable long-term, well-paid jobs in the hospitality industry, health care, banking and retail sales career pathways for young people.
