Today's information and telecommunications technology puts more power into the hands of small business. But quite often, the only things hampering a company's success are the technology and the knowledgeable staff to use it. Whether a business has one employee or 250, it may be able to take advantage of a unique funding program designed to share the risk of applying technology new to a firm. The First Jobs in Science and Technology Program can provide funding to hire recent science and technology graduates to help a company adopt new technologies and exploit the opportunities they provide. Please indicate your name, company name, what you do, and how many interns you want to hire.
