Kelly FedSecure Sponsors Nation’s First Business Incubator for Homeland SecurityTROY, Mich. (June 23, 2004) - Kelly FedSecure, a business unit of staffing leader Kelly Services, today announced it has become a sustaining sponsor of the Chesapeake Innovation Center (CIC), the high technology network whose prominent industry partners include the National Security Agency. “We are pleased to have the opportunity to support the CIC in enhancing the growth and development of companies focused on making our country a safer place to work and live,” said Richard Piske, senior managing director, Kelly FedSecure. “The demand for cleared people has continued to be a challenge for companies large and small. Our partnership with CIC will enable emerging companies to have access to the human capital resources that will help bring new technologies to market with the speed that is essential for our national security.” John Elstner, CEO of the CIC, said, “Good people are the most crucial component of any successful enterprise, but in the homeland and national security sectors, it’s often not enough for a company’s employees to be good – they also have to be cleared. Kelly FedSecure offers the CIC network a unique and trusted national resource to find and retain mission-critical cleared personnel.” The CIC is a public-private partnership supported by the Anne Arundel (County) Economic Development Corporation in partnership with a network of key organizations in the homeland security, communications and information technology industries. Based in Annapolis, Md., the CIC has 12 member companies that produce everything from an anthrax treatment to security software. The CIC helps its members achieve success by providing them with strategic business assistance, mentoring, market intelligence, flexible office space and exposure to networks of potential investors, customers and strategic partners.
