Welcome and thanks to BDO, a new annual sponsor of TechFlash
TechFlash is pleased to welcome BDO, an accounting, tax and valuation firm with deep roots and expertise in the technology industry, as an annual sponsor. We appreciate BDO’s decision to support our mission of informing and bringing together the Seattle region’s technology community. Sponsors make TechFlash possible, and we hope you’ll join us in thanking BDO for its support.
Through the annual sponsorship, BDO will engage with the technology community in a variety of ways -- including sponsor messages on the site and in the daily TechFlash email newsletter. The BDO brand will become a familiar sight to TechFlash readers. The firm’s leaders will also be active participants in TechFlash events, including the upcoming March 23 TechFlash Live at the Showbox Sodo. (Maybe they'll even join us in the official sport of TechFlash, ping-pong.)
As the region’s premier technology news and information source, TechFlash is committed to helping build and foster the technology community. We’re also committed to being the area’s top resource for companies and organizations serving the technology industry. BDO, with smart and aggressive local leadership, is just such a company, and we are really looking forward to the opportunity to accelerate BDO’s growth through its new TechFlash partnership.
If your company, or a company you know, would like to harness TechFlash as an engine for growth, we’re always available to talk. My direct line 206-876-5402, and my email is ethomas@bizjournals.com.
