As the CEO of software testing business and member of Technology First CEO Council, Jeff Van Fleet, along with CIO Council member predicts continued growth within the Dayton region.

DAYTON, OH October 15, 2009– Software testing company Lighthouse Technologies, Inc.’s (Lighthouse) President and CEO, Jeff Van Fleet, along with Steve Hangen, CIO of WinWholesale predict continued growth within the Dayton region.  As Technology First CEO and CIO council members (respectively), they presented their findings to the Executive Committee at the Technology First annual meeting.

Hangen and Van Fleet explained to meeting participants the objectives of the CIO and CEO councils and the collaboration between the two councils.  The CIO Council allows members to share best practices and advice in a private environment while the CEO Council are owners of IT companies that generate revenue in the Dayton region.

“With the two councils collaborating together,” says Van Fleet, “We can focus on sharing business advice to continue to grow within the region.”

As a CEO Council member and software QA professional, Van Fleet gave valuable insight on how IT companies like Lighthouse can generate revenue within the region. “The objective on the CEO Council is to support Dayton region IT companies by bringing in business from outside the Dayton region,” says Van Fleet.  “By collaborating with the CIO Council, we understand the upcoming market needs so than we can quickly position our companies to address these needs and reach outside the region to deliver our solutions.”
