SureFire IT Solutions Joins Leading Technology Thought Leaders for Breakthrough Industry Conference

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 28, 2009 – Edmonton, Alberta – SureFire IT Solutions recently played an active role throughout the first annual Heartland Tech Group (HTG) Summit in Dallas, Texas.  HTG attracts industry thought leaders, experts and peers from across the globe.  HTG members recently converged to participate and share knowledge, build on proven best practices and leverage the talents of all members. Built on its mandate of execution and accountability, HTG provides positive interaction throughout the entire technology industry by holding each other accountable to all members’ commitments.

SureFire IT Solutions participates in HTG10 (only Canadian focused peer group) alongside eight other group members who serve as a peer board of directors.  Individual peer groups drill down and focus on overall effectiveness across operations, marketing, sales, finances and overall health of each member.  By focusing on industry standards including business planning, process development, financial benchmarking and education, HTG members strive to maintain a competitive advantage over those other service firms that do not participate in peer activities.

“Participation in the HTG Summit benefits our company and our clients by exposing us to leading ideas, technologies and industry peers, “ said Jesse Jervis, President of SureFire IT Solutions. “We bring back proven ideas we can use immediately and a longer-term plan for greater success in the future. Plus, our peers hold us accountable for achieving our goals.”

Focused on only the best small and midsize technology firms, HTG spans the entire technology ecosystem. By leveraging leading technology manufacturers and vendors who provide sponsorship and interaction with HTG members, members are now equipped with the tools and knowledge to provide an increased level of service in their communities. HTG members are better prepared and understand the importance of positive interaction across all levels of the industry. This includes how disruptive and breakthrough IT solutions will influence their clients with laser-focused training from their peers and leading industry experts.

“HTG member companies benefit from having SureFire IT Solutions join us at our event and participate in our peer groups,” said Scott Scrogin, President of HTG. “Our members have a passionate commitment to change and improve their businesses and their lives. Great technology matters, but we know that relationships and execution matter more.”
